    http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/cropsystems/DC5886.html
    
    Extractions: Department of Soil, Water, and Climate Tissue Nitrate Analysis for Vegetable Crops There are 16 essential nutrients required for plant growth: carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), sulfur (S), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), boron (B), molybdenum (Mo), and chlorine (Cl). Of these 16, all except carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are derived from the soil. When the soil cannot supply the level of nutrient required for adequate growth, supplemental fertilizer applications become necessary. Proper interpretation of soil test results for making fertilizer recommendations is dependent on collecting a representative sample. The procedure for taking a meaningful soil sample is summarized below. Soil samples can be collected any time of the year, although spring and fall sampling are usually the most convenient. If soil test results from a given field are to be compared over the years, it is best that samples be collected at the same time of year.

    Extractions: Graduate study at Washington State University in the Department of Horticulture and Landscape Architecture offers many exciting opportunities. The horticulture industry in the state of Washington is diverse, with production and utilization of ornamental products, fresh and processed fruits and vegetables, and vegetable seed production. Opportunities for research in all of these areas are available in the department. Commodity and Discipline Specialties for Graduate Study in Horticulture at WSU: Environmental Horticulture Programs Washington is a major producer of a wide variety of ornamental crops. Roses and bulb crops are the major cut flowers in the state. Tulip, daffodil and iris bulbs are produced in the Puyallup and Skagit valleys and are shipped worldwide. Several acres of greenhouses produce bedding plants, poinsettias, lilies, chrysanthemums, foliage and several other potted plant varieties. The nursery industry is especially strong in the production of conifers and broad-leaved evergreens such as rhododendrons. Production is located both in the mild western part of the state and near the metropolitan areas east of the Cascade Mountains. The nursery and greenhouse products industry ranks in the top ten agricultural commodities in the state of Washington and is valued at more than $250 million annually.

88. Fresh Market Fruit, Vegetables
    The potential for production and marketing of fruit and vegetable crops in Oklahomahas never been greater.  
    http://www.noble.org/Ag/Horticulture/FreshFruitOkla/
    
    Extractions: Other Horticulture Articles by Steve Upson OK, I confess. I'm an optimist when it comes to the future of Oklahoma's fruit and vegetable industry. I firmly believe the potential for production and marketing of fruit and vegetable crops in this state has never been greater. Oklahoma has always produced quality pecans, peaches, watermelons, sweet corn and strawberries. Stratford and Porter are known for peach production, Rush Springs for watermelon, Bixby for sweet corn and Stilwell for strawberries. Unfortunately, according to Oklahoma Department of Agriculture statistics, acreage of fresh market fruits and vegetables grown in Oklahoma has been on the decline over the last half century. For example, 11,000 acres of watermelon were produced in 1957. Melon acreage had fallen to 7,000 acres in 2001. In 1963, 41,000 acres of mixed vegetables were planted. In 1981, the acreage had dropped to 31,000. Despite advances in farming technology, Oklahoma has not kept pace with other areas of the country in terms of increased production. For example, California is a net exporter of horticulture food crops while Oklahoma imports the majority of its fruits and vegetables even during harvest season.

    Extractions: Home About Academics Admissions ... A-Z Site Index Weather Objectives Technical, economic and political change have greatly increased the complexity of agricultural policy decisions and the demand for policy analysis. At the same time, the substantial deregulation of agriculture has meant that there is less information available for both public and private policy analysis. Indeed, the fruit and vegetable industry has been affected by the changing environment possibly more than any other agricultural sub-sector. Policy decisions related to this industry not only affect its economic viability in the United States, but also the welfare of U.S. consumers. The National Food and Agricultural Policy Project (NFAPP) is designed to help meet the increasingly critical information needs of policy makers and the public by supplying timely research and analysis of the implications of proposed policy changes and market developments. The objectives of the project are: To respond in a timely manner to requests for policy relevant information from Congressional members and their staff on a wide variety of topics that impact the fruit and vegetable industry or consumers.

    Metam Sodium as an Alternative to Methyl Bromide for Fruit and Vegetable fungi affecting a variety of economically important fruit and vegetable crops.  
    http://www.epa.gov/spdpublc/mbr/casestudies/volume1/metams.html
    
    Extractions: Federal Procurement First discovered in 1950, metam sodium, also sold under the trade names Vapam, Busan, and Sectagon II, degrades rapidly to methylisothiocyanate, the product's primary bioactive agent (Budavari 1994). Used as part of an Integrated Pest Management system, metam sodium is a broad spectrum soil fumigant that can be used to control nematodes, weeds, and fungi affecting a variety of economically important fruit and vegetable crops. Overall, metam sodium is considered a cost effective, technically viable alternative to methyl bromide for controlling soil pests affecting high value fruit and vegetable crops in Florida and California. Cost-effective method to control tough annual weeds, reduce nematode populations, and control soil-borne pathogens prior to planting fruits and vegetables.

    Extractions: Institutional responses in the Hindu Kush-Himalayan Region Introduction Improvements in the economy and quality of life of farming communities in Himachal Pradesh (HP), particularly apple and vegetable farmers, is widely acknowledged as a success story in the hills and mountains of the Hindu Kush-Himalayas. The significant point is that this success has been achieved without using the conventional strategies that focus mainly on industrialisation. The majority (75%) of farming families in the apple growing area of Himachal belong to small and marginal farming categories. The state has created a new concept in the development of hill economies through transformation brought about in agriculture, horticulture , and animal husbandry. Case Mr. Dhani, an experienced farmer from Himachal Pradesh, narrated his experience of crop choice and replacement over five decades. From 1940-50, 50 farmers in this area harvested wild mushrooms ( Morchella spp.), wild fruits, and medicinal herbs from the forest to earn cash to supplement the shortages in food supplies from their farmlands (see table below). Mr. Dhani himself used to grow at least 17 crop species besides keeping animals and growing fodder species. Farming was based upon subsistence, and at least nine types of staple crops were grown to fit into the diverse niches of his 27 ha farm. Besides rice, wheat, and barley, a range of minor crops, such as finger-millet, persomillet, grain chenopods, foxtail millet, and buckwheat, was grown. In those days food sufficiency was the priority. Mustard and sesame crops were grown for vegetable oil for home consumption and butter ghee used to be harvested from the seeds of the chiuri (

    Extractions: University of California, Riverside The process of selecting a crop which can be grown for profit is one that should be approached with great care. The decision to grow a crop is sometimes based upon recent high market prices or last year's high prices, but history is not always a good indicator of the future. Neither should a decision be based entirely upon other growers' success with the crop. The selection of a crop involves many considerations with respect to the culture of the crop as well as marketing. In order for a crop to be profitable, the grower must produce a good yield of acceptable quality and sell it for more than the cost of producing the crop. With yield and quality as primary objectives, it will be important to learn as much as possible about the culture and general requirements of the crop under consideration. General Crop Decisions What is known about variety adaptability in your area? About the effects of spacing on yield and quality? What is your personal experience with the crop? How much capital will be need to be invested in growing the crop? Are there special cultural problems of which you should be aware? What is the research base for the crop under consideration?
