Evidence of the benefits of free trade are clear as two-way trade in goods and services between Canada and the United States totaled $440 billion in 2002, the largest bilateral exchange in the world. Furthering the benefits of free trade, the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) opened the Mexican market to Canada and the United States. Canada was North Dakota's most important export market.

HRIDIR Home FAQ ISHS Home ISHS Contact ... Search International Society for Horticultural Science Horticulture Research International North Dakota United States of America General info North Dakota is an agricultural state characterized by mixed farming with wheat, barley, flax, soybeans and corn the major cultivated crops, and because of the large livestock industry comprising cattle, hogs, sheep, and poultry, the additional establishment of natural and cultivated grasslands are important. The potato is the most important of the vegetable crops while a whole range of garden vegetables is cultivated. For example, well adapted cultivars of tomatoes, cucumbers, melons, peppers and sweet corn are grown with considerable success. Tree fruits like apple along with plums appear in home gardens in every area of the state. The strawberry is the most common small fruit and has commercial possibilities as well as common home garden use. The North Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station of North Dakota State University at Fargo, North Dakota, in the department of Horticulture and Forestry has been largely responsible for the bulk of the horticultural research and development in the state. It operates several branch stations and horticultural work is carried on at these. The largest single area of research is potato crops. The ornamental work has largely been concerned with hardiness and establishment studies and the testing of new species and varieties of various materials as poplar and potentilla for identity of types and their potential use. Evaluation and establishment of deciduous and evergreen species is underway to develop recreation areas on the prairie. An arboretum has been established to aid in hardiness studies and teaching.

Region 6 Environmental Contaminants Success Stories - North Dakota Return to Success Stories Pesticides In 1995, the EPA approved the North Dakota Endangered Species-Pesticide Management Plan. This was the first such plan in the nation. It is a collaborative effort between the FWS, North Dakota Agriculture Department, North Dakota Game and Fish Department, and local agriculture groups such as the Farm Bureau and Farmers Union. The plan protects four threatened and endangered species (pallid sturgeon, piping plover, bald eagle, and least tern) from 27 pesticides at nearly 150 breeding sites throughout the state. Currently satellite imagery and GIS technology is being employed to further protect these species from pesticides. The Environmental Contaminants program regularly participates with North Dakota Agricultural Extension Service to recertify pesticide applicators. This has proven to be an effective endeavor in presenting pesticides and wildlife before those who work with the chemicals on a daily basis. In addition to speaking personally to applicators, we also have made a video discussing pesticides and their impact of the environment. This video is shown yearly to thousands of pesticide applicators and farmers via satellite hook up throughout the state. Oil Field Waste Pits and Bird Mortalities
