Abstract Certified B-size potatoes were planted 23 May at the University of Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station, Rosemount, MN. Treatments were 2 rows wide and 100 ft long with 40-inch row spacing. Treatments were randomized in complete blocks with 4 replications. Granular insecticides were applied in furrow with a planter-mounted granular applicator. A non-insecticidal check was planted between every 2 insecticidal treatments. The plots were not sprayed with any foliar insecticide. On 18 Sep, potatoes were harvested, counted and scored for wireworm injury. Control for each treatment was calculated as percent reduction in wireworm damage relative to the adjacent untreated control.

Abstract:
The first detailed study of solute movement through the vadose zone at field scales of space and time was performed by Biggar and Nielsen (1976). Their experiment was conducted on a 150-ha agricultural site located at the West Side Field Station of the University of California, where the soil (Panoche series) exhibits a broad range of textures. Twenty well-separated, 6.5-m-square plots, previously instrumented to monitor matric potential and withdraw soil solution for chemical analysis, were ponded with water containing low concentrations of the tracer anions chloride and nitrate. After about 1 week, steady-state infiltration conditions were established, and 0.075 m of water containing the two anions at concentrations between 0.1 and 0.2 mol L-1 was leached through each plot at the local infiltration rate, which varied widely from 0.054 to 0.46 m day-1, depending on plot location. Once this solute pulse had infiltrated (< 1.5 days), leaching under ponded conditions was recommenced with the water low in chloride and nitrate. Solution samples were extracted before and after the solute pulse input at six depths up to 1.83 m below the land surface in each plot. Analyses of these samples for chloride and nitrate produced a broad range of concentration data which nonetheless showed an excellent linear correlation between the concentrations of the two anions (R2= 0.975), with a proportionality coefficient equal to that expected on the basis of the composition of the input pulse. Values of the measured solute concentrations at each sampling depth were tabulated as functions of the leaching time. Biggar and Nielsen (1976) decided to fit their very large concentration-depth-time database to a finite-pulsc-input solution of the one-dimensional advection-dispersion equation, leaving both the dispersion coefficient D and advection velocity u as adjustable parameters. The 359 field-wide values of u obtained in this way were highly variable (CV ≈ 200%), but also highly correlated (R2 = 0.84) and proportional to values of the advection velocity calculated directly as the ratio of water flux density to water content in each field plot (Biggar and Nielsen, 1976, figure 4).

Abstract:
Eight friends were seated around the dining room table, two bulging photo albums at the ready, about to start a round of that curious adult version of Show and Tell known as Our Summer Vacation. Donna and Stanley had begun their album with pictures of Stanley delivering a lecture to clinical psychologists at the Catholic University of Campinas, in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. This was followed by page after page of lush, colorful South American scenery: snapshots of the mighty Iguazú Falls taken from the river below; towering walls of green vegetation along the Rio Paraná; a thick growth of native trees overtaking the exotic plantings left behind by the celebrated botanist Moises Bertoni at the remains of his agricultural experiment station in the Paraguayan province of Alto Paraná. Then there were pictures of Stan-ley and Donna with their Brazilian hosts, flanked by stately palms; pictures at their friends’ beautiful beach house in Ubatuba; pictures of costumed samba dancers; and more pictures of scarlet and blue macaws, gaudy toucans, purple bougainvilleas, brilliant butterflies, and the rich magnificence of one of the last remaining patches of Brazil’s Atlantic coastal forest. The album provided a breathtaking display of natural and human exuberance painted in a profusion of vivid reds, blues, yellows, and, above all, greens. I could almost smell the myriad fragrances borne on the tropical breeze and hear one of my favorite sounds, the chattering of parrots far above in the treetops. As the pages turned, the phrase “hot spots” came into my mind, that graphic term for those patches of exceptionally high biodiversity—many of them in the tropics—that receive the lion’s share of attention from conservation biologists and others dedicated to the preservation of endangered species. I thought of the conservation argument that says if we want to preserve life, look first at the places where, acre for acre, the most kinds of life exist—where an acre can yield a hundred species of trees instead of a handful, and more species of insects than most of us can imagine.

Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted at the research field station of the Field Crops Department, College of Agricultural Engineering Sciences, University of Baghdad, Jadriya, during the year 2017-2018— the experiment aimed to study the effect of growth regulator gibberellin on broad bean growth and yield. In a factorial experiment according to RCBD design, the first factor was gibberellin spraying stages (the beginning of vegetative growth and the beginning of flowering), while the second factor was gibberellin concentrations (100, 200, and 300 mg L1), in addition to the comparison treatment, which was sprayed with water only. It was flowering by giving it the highest average plant height, number of pods, and seeds per pod. The results showed the superiority of the spraying stage at the beginning of flowering by giving it the highest mean of plant height, number of pods, and number of seeds per pod. In the spraying phase at the beginning of flowering (S2) and a concentration of 300 mg L-1, the highest average number of pods per plant reached 20.00 pods per plant. In comparison, a treatment at the beginning of flowering (S2) and a concentration of 200 mg L-1 achieved the highest average number of seeds per pod, reached 4.50 Seed in the pod, and achieved the spraying stage at the beginning of vegetative growth (S1) and the concentration was 200 mg L-1, the highest average was 133.3 g. We conclude from this study that spraying gibberellin at the beginning of flowering affected growth indicators and increased yield by increasing the averages of its components, especially by increasing the concentration of gibberellin at 200 and 300 mg L-1.

Abstract:
The paper will introduce the research community to the Mississippi Micro-CHP (Cooling, Heating, and Power) and Bio-fuel Center, a unique research, demonstration and education center combining the resources and expertise from Mississippi State University Engineering, Agriculture, and the Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station (MAFES). The center is a vertically integrated program to study and demonstrate the entire bio-fuel utilization cycle from “woodchips to micro-CHPs”: feedstock production, conversion to bio-fuel/biogas, conversion to onsite electrical power, and utilization of the resulting waste heat to provide the site’s cooling and heating needs. The “micro” designates a focus on residential, small commercial and rural applications. The coupling of micro-CHP with bio-fuels has to do with addressing regional and demographic consideration of successful micro-CHP implementation as opposed to a one-strategy-fits-all approach. The paper will contrast characteristics of residential and small commercial establishments versus commercial/industrial CHP systems and form a list of desirable characteristics for micro-CHP components and overall micro-CHP system design. Based on these evaluations, future research plans for the Center will be suggested. Another factor that will be stressed is that Micro-CHP will best be utilized if designed as part of a whole building system. The characteristics of the building are as important as the characteristics of the equipment, and both should be designed to work together synergistically.
