Academics Extension Research Services ... People History of the Crop Science Department Oregon State University Originally prepared by R.E. Fore and D.W. Hedrick, 1967 Edited and extended by A.P. Appleby, 1999 The history of instruction and research in farm crops at OSU traces back through the Agronomy Department (1907-1916) of the Agricultural Division formed at the time of the establishment of Oregon Agricultural College in 1868. During the early years of O.A.C., gardens were maintained for the production of crops and instruction of students in crop production. Different varieties and cultural practices were tested. The establishment in 1888 of the Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station gave added emphasis to research, and work with farm crops was expanded immediately. George Hyslop devoted much time to the development of the seed industry in Oregon. He started the Oregon Seed Certification program and was active in the development of the program until his death. He has been called the father of both the seed industry and the certification program in Oregon. He first undertook seed certification with potatoes in 1916 to provide seed stock true to variety name and reasonably free of diseases. Two years later, Oregon State Agricultural College started the certification of wheat. Certification of forage crops seed started in 1924, with the certification of a field of Grimm alfalfa. The Seed Testing Laboratory was started as a USDA cooperative lab in 1909 and continued as such until 1954 when it was taken over by the state of Oregon. The lab was part of the Agronomy Department until 1916 and a section of the Farm Crops Department since that time.

At a recent international gathering of biosafety researchers , a European scientist overheard our American dialects and commented dryly, "I didn't think you Yanks cared about this sort of thing [biosafety]." There is, unfortunately, a grain of truth in that statement. However, we do care. And we argue here that biosafety data could be gathered efficiently if US researchers would collect ecological data during large-scale trials and commercial uses of GM crops. There is no evidence that the current products of GM crops produced in the United States are harmful to the environment or human health; an estimated 3.5 trillion GM plants grown in the United States since 1994 have had no measurable ill effects

Biotech rice crop now looks unlikely By SCOTT MOYERS ~ SEMO News Service With the rice-growing season several weeks old, a biotech firm wanting to plant Missouri's first genetically modified rice crop indicated Monday that last-minute setbacks make producing a crop this year less likely. "We haven't given up, but it's going to be pretty tough," Ventria Biosciences president Scott Deeter said. "We're still working whatever angles we can to make it work in Missouri, but we're business people. We're developing alternatives as we speak." Ventria is looking at backup plans such as getting pharmaceutical rice crops started in North Carolina, where it already has permits, and supplementing those crops in South American fields later this year. "We're definitely going to have some production this year, whether or not it's in Missouri," he said. Deeter says Ventria has set a deadline of May 20 to see if it can clear governmental hurdles in Missouri created when it agreed to abandon its original plan of growing 150 acres of so-called pharmaceutical crops - those that contain human medicines - in Chaffee. The company agreed earlier this month to find another site that would be at least 120 miles from Southeast Missouri rice country, where rice is grown for human consumption. That change was in response to pressure from local farmers and to beer giant Anheuser-Busch's threat to discontinue buying Missouri rice. Both feared the genetically modified rice would contaminate rice grown for human consumption and damage their markets.

Agronomy Major (link to Course Schedule) You may not be familiar with the word, but your life depends on it. Agronomy - the study of plants, soils and their environment - is the heart of food production. At the University of Guelph, you'll learn how to face the challenge of producing safe food while preserving our environment. You'll prepare for a career where you can make an impact in Canada or overseas. Without the study of Agronomy, there wouldn't be much on our dinner plates. Field crops like wheat, corn and oats are the staff of life in the northern climates. They provide our breakfast toast and cereal, our nachos and peanut butter sandwiches. They also feed the animals that provide our milk, hamburgers, fried chicken and steak. Without Agronomy, we'd be stuck in the rut of our remote ancestors - hunting and gathering food whenever possible. Increasing populations, climatic fluctuations and worldwide economic disparities pose threats to humanity and make it increasingly difficult for some populations to feed themselves. Successful modern crop production integrates production methods with ecological and business concerns. In Agronomy, you'll learn about advances in crop management, agroecology, soil conservation and biotechnology. Society needs graduates who enjoy a challenge, people who are knowledgeable about:
