Abstract:
... The coffee berry borer, Hypothenemus hampei, is the most important pest of coffee worldwide, causing an estimated $500 million in damage annually. Infestation rates from 50-90% have been reported, significantly impacting coffee yields. Adult female H. hampei bore into the berry and lay eggs whose larvae hatch and spend their entire larval life within the berry, feeding on the coffee bean, lowering ...

Abstract:
... Differential varietal responses to time of planting were very pronounced in the advanced winter wheat nursery under conditions of Hessian fly prevalence and winterkilling. Since changes in the degree of expression of these and other environmental factors which influence the wheat crop occur as a result of change in the time of planting, the introduction of duplicate plantings at several dates is r ...

Abstract:
... Properly read germination tests are an accurate index of the field value of seed peas. Considerable mechanical loss occurs in the harvesting, threshing, cleaning, and drilling of seed peas. Mechanical seed injury seriously reduces the value of peas for planting purposes. Germination decreases in proportion to the severity of the injury. Force-feed drills cause considerable mechanical injury to smo ...

Abstract:
... The yellowed condition of alfalfa which occurred on some soils in midsummer has been corrected by additions of borax. Manganese appears to supplement the effect of borax. Zinc and copper have antagonistic or negative effects, but a combination of manganese, zinc, and copper sulfates produced results similar to those obtained with borax. Borax effectively corrected the abnormal condition when appli ...
