Water traveling through tiny pores oscillates between liquid (red/orange) and vapor (dark blue) phases. Computer simulations reveal that water traveling through tiny poressimilar in size to protein channelsoscillates between liquid and vapor phases. Channel proteins that control the flow of water, ions, and other small molecules across cell membranes are central to cell function. Scientists recognize that the size of these biological pores is an important determinant of function, but exactly how the behavior of water changes as it travels through different sized pores is poorly understood. In research published this week in PNAS, Oliver Beckstein and Mark Sansom of the University of Oxford modeled the behavior of water passing through simulated pores designed to mimic biological channels. The amount of vapor in a pore depended on the pore's radiusabove 0.55 nanometers the water was entirely liquid; below 0.45 nanometers it was predominantly vapor. Between these sizes, the water oscillated between liquid and vapor, driven by pressure and density fluctuations in the water reservoir outside the pore. These results will help elucidate the function of biological channels controlling the transport of water and other molecules into and out of cells, and may facilitate the future development of nanotechnology devices.

DuPont Cancels Benomyl Registration, Effective December 31, 2001
I spoke with Walt Stevenson, vegetable plant pathologist and Patty McManus, fruit crop pathologist about how this cancellation will affect Wisconsin’s fruit and vegetable growers. In Wisconsin vegetable production, benomyl is registered for use on carrots, celery, beans, and vine crops. It is used in snap bean production for Sclerotinia white mold and Botrytis gray mold control. Benomyl is also used on dry, lima, and wax beans. Alternative fungicides for beans include Topsin-M, Rovral, and Ronilan. Recently, a new microbial fungicide, Contans WG ( Coniothyrium minitans ) was labeled for the control of white mold on beans. This product has a broad range of crops for which it’s registered and is applied to soil and plant residue to reduce the amount of sclerotia that serve as inoculum for the disease. Crop rotations of at least 2 years between bean crops or other susceptible crops are also recommended to reduce disease pressure in beans.

Agroforestry may include any one or more of six specific practices. They are: alley cropping, forest farming, riparian buffer strips, silvopasture, windbreaks and special applications. Windbreaks and riparian buffer strips have their own sections below.
Alley cropping means to grow an agricultural crop at the same time in the same field between the rows of a tree crop. The agricultural crop provides yearly income as the trees mature. At the end of the rotation, the trees are harvested for high value lumber or veneer. Walnut, pecan, oak and ash are favored tree crops. In some cases nuts can also provide intermediate income. Agroforestry practices increase biodiversity , improve aesthetics and provide food and habitat for wildlife.

PESTICIDE RESIDUES IN FOODS: IS FOOD SAFETY JUST A MATTER OF ORGANIC VERSUS TRADITIONAL FARMING?
By Ricardo T. Bessin, Extension Entomologist University of Kentucky Department of Entomology
The food supply of the U.S. is among the safest in the world. However, beginning even before birth, we are exposed to low levels of pesticide residues through our foods. Consumers are very concerned about pesticide residues on food. Recent surveys of consumers have indicated that more than 80 percent view pesticide residues as a "serious hazard." This far outranks concerns over drugs and hormones in meat, nitrates in foods, irradiated foods, additives, or artificial colors. People are confronted with many cancer-causing and other health threats that they can do little to avoid including: second-hand tobacco smoke, exhaust emissions, lead poisoning, and occupational hazards at work. However, some feel that pesticide residues in food are unnecessary and preventable types of contamination. Are children or other groups at greater risk to pesticide residues? Consumers are confused as well as concerned. With this volatile issue, it is important to maintain the facts and concerns in a proper perspective. To regulate the safety of foods, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set tolerance levels, or maximum legal limits for pesticide residues on food commodities for sale in the U.S. EPA tolerances are based on a very conservative set of assumptions including that each pesticide is applied at the maximum rate allowed by the label, the maximum number of applications are made, and only the minimum permissible interval is allowed between applications. Scientists find the safe daily intake level, "No Observable Effects Level (NOEL)," and build in a 100 fold or more margin of safety. This procedure sets a legal residue level. If the maximum possible exposure to a chemical is less than the legal residue level, the EPA grants a tolerance.

The key to coping with this situation is to pay close attention to management and marketing strategies. Crop producers always can depend on their local county agricultural agents for management help. This booklet summarizes tested techniques and tips to help sustain a thriving farm operation. The final page highlights Extension publications which provide m ore detail about producing certain crops.
Whole Farm Management
  • Consider new crops and crop combinations. Winter wheat, crop rotations, double-cropping, and niche crops may offer opportunities to reduce financial risks and make a profit.
  • Renegotiate land rents. Look for opportunities to renegotiate rents more in line with current low prices and earning power of the land.
  • Take marginal lands out of production.

Operation and maintenance
Operation and maintenance works vary on the basis of the technology used. Cisterns, for example, are completely excavated in rocks if they are solid, or above the ground surface where all precautions are taken to decrease water leakage from cistern walls, contamination and wall abrasion. To increase the incoming water volume to the cistern, the efficiency of the feeding area can be increased if it is lined with thin concrete layers or compressed clay. Safe design specifications should be applied when computing the cross sections of cisterns, and a suitable lining material also should be selected to minimize leakage from the walls or the cistern bed. It is recommended that the building materials available at the cistern site be used, as well as selecting appropriate locations for harvesting the rainwater that guarantee the cistern is filled even during the driest periods and with the minimum quantity of equipment. If small dams are used, their safety depends on the basic hydrological conditions in the watershed basin and the relevant hyrdrometric measurements, in order to determine the seasonal water contributions for the valley or river course. The relation between the annual rainfall rate and the runoff coefficient must be determined, and the geologic and geomorphologic conditions at the dam site also must be identified. The dam is typically designed to sustain the worst expected conditions. Technical management for operating the dam also is required, as well as collection of relevant data on annual storage volume, methods of water distribution and regular maintenance, in order to avoid negative impacts such as sedimentation at the dam structure or spillway. The construction of small dams generally requires technical staff with good expertise and experience, as well as the availability of modern equipment.

        The Bekaa gears up for cannabis crops
        The Daily Star, Lebanon , 7th May 2005
        Despite missing the planting season this year, farmers in the Bekaa Valley are rushing to replace their chickpeas, lentils, wheat and barley - many of which have already sprouted - with fresh cannabis seeds hoping to obtain a successful hashish harvest next September and October. To many Bekaa farmers the issue is one of survival, plain and simple. But he also did not hide his concern the army, which has been patrolling the newly planted lands, would destroy any hashish fields as soon as their plants become visible. However, Fakhry added even if the army does destroy the plants, destroying a field of cannabis is still cheaper than losing an entire season of potatoes or wheat to bad weather.

In Bettiol's original experiment, fresh milk was used, straight from the cow. However, this is obviously not feasible to most home gardeners. The research work in New Zealand actually found that using skim milk was just as effective. Not only was it cheaper, but the fact that the milk had no fat content meant that there was less chance of any odors. Squirrels and Rabbits in your garden?
