Youngen Professor of Agronomy, Emeritus Southern Oregon Experiment Station Oregon State University INTRODUCTION The Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosa L.) is a member of the sunflower family and a native American plant. It has long been a popular garden crop for its tubers, which can be eaten raw, sliced into salads, or boiled like potatoes. Farmers have used it as a livestock feed, sometimes making silage of the tops but more often feeding the harvested tubers to livestock or simply allowing hogs to root them out of the ground. The plant can easily become a weed, especially in gardens, and wild types are often called wild sunflowers. From America, the crop was taken to Europe by early explorers, and its production spread throughout the continent. In Europe, its use for livestock feed and for human food began in the seventeenth century. In the United States tubers served as a food source for the Huron Indians, and it was used in New England for pottage, a thick soup. Dried stalks were sometimes used for fuel in place of wood. Recently, the Jerusalem artichoke has been mentioned as a promising source plant for the production of industrial alcohol, primarily for blending with gasoline to make gasohol. The tubers contain up to 18 percent sugar, mainly as levulose, and are a good source of inulin, an anhydride of levulose. Trials were conducted in Oregon beginning in the early 1920's, although there was much interest and some production late in the nineteenth century (6). The United States Department of Agriculture conducted trials for several yers beginning in 1931 in Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, Wyoming, Maryland, and Virginia. One conclusion from that work was that western Oregon had very favorable growing conditions for the crop, resulting in high yields of tops and tulhPrs (1). To obtain information on some agronomic aspects of its production in southern Oregon, field experiments were conducted in 1980, 1981, and 1982. The effect of row and plant spacing, top growth removal, and volunteer stands were measured on fresh and dry weights of top growth, tuhr.r yield, tuber specific gravity, and soluble solids. That information is presented in the first part of this report beginning on page 2. Herbicide tolerance information was obtained from trials conducted from 1982 through 1984. The second part of this report, beginning on page 13, presents data from the herbicide trials which were designed to find chemical means of eradiciating Jerusalem artichoke from a succeeding crop of barley.

Similarly, no criticism or discrimination is intended or implied of products or equipment not listed. -1- Part 1: JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE PRODUCTION TRIALS The trials were conducted on a deep, well-drained Central Point sandy loam soil, described as a coarse-loamy, mixed, mesic, Pachic Haploxerol by the Soil Conservation Service. Irrigation water was applied with high-rise, overhead sprinklers. The Jerusalem artichoke planting stock was the Mammoth French White selection. The design used in each experiment was a randomized complete block with four replications. 1980 Materials and Methods The previous year's crop was spring barley. The experimental area was fertilized with 40 pounds of nitrogen (N), 40 pounds of phosphate (P205 ) and 40 pounds of potash (K50) per acre during seedbed preparation. Trifluralin (Treflan) and EPIC (Eptam) were applied at 0.75 and 2.0 pounds per acre, respectively, as preplant incorporated herbicide treatments on March 19. The two herbicides were registered for use on sunflower, but they were considered experimental for use on Jerusalem artichoke. Small tubers and pieces of titers averaging about two ounces were hand-planted March 21 at a depth of 3 inches. Planting variables included two row spacings, 20 and 40 inches, and spacings of 12, 18, and 24 inches within the rows. The amounts of planting stock used for the different spacings ranged from 800 to 3,260 pounds per acre. The planting was fertilized with 80 pounds of nitrogen per acre as urea on May 21. Silage-stage sampling was done October 1, 194 days after planting, when the plants were in full bloom. Tuber harvest was done on November 18 from plants that had their tops removed for the silage-stage harvest. Tubers were harvested December 18 from plants whose tops were intact but killed by freezing weather. The tubers were washed and fresh or green weights were recorded after each harvest. Specific gravity was determined on tubers after they were washed. Results and Discussion Excellent stands were obtained, and growth was vigorous throughout the season. By June 5, plants were 18 to 24 inches in height, and there were no weeds. Plants began flowering from buds at the terminals of the upper branches on September 22 (almost 90 days later than oilseed sunflowers growing nearby). Stalks were 10 to 14 feet, and the tallest growth occurred with the highest plant populations and with 20-inch row spacing. With the highest plant population, there was very little branching of the lower part of the plants, but there were many branches a few inches above the crown where plants were spaced 18 and 24 inches apart, especially in the 40-row spacing plantings. -2- The flowers resembled those of sunflowers, but they were numerous and smaller, averaging less than 2 inches in diameter. Fresh weights of top growth ranged from 29.7 to 33.8 tons per acre, and while yields were highest with the 12-inch plant spacing, the differences were not statistically significant (Table 1). Dry matter yields ranged from 7.51 to 9.50 tons per acre. The highest yields were with the 20-inch row spacing, and with the 12-inch hill spacing. Dry matter content averaged 26.9 percent; the 20-inch row spacing, 28.0 percent and the 40-inch row spacing 25.8 percent. The dry matter average yield of 8.56 tons per acre was 91 percent of the yield of 12 field corn hybrids grown on the station. Fresh weights of tubers from plants harvested for silage-stage determination ranged from 14.2 to 17.4 tons per acre (Table 2). Highest yields were obtained with the 12-inch spacing within the row, although differences were not statistically significant. When the tops were left on the plants until the December 18 harvest, tuber yields were more than double that of plants whose tops were removed October 1. The period of rapid tuber expansion of Jerusalem artichoke is after flowering, when sugars stored in the stalks are moved into the tubers. The highest yields were from plants spaced 12 inches apart in both row spacings. Tubers of Jerusalem artichoke vary in shape and size. The type grown produced reasonably smooth tubers, although some knobbiness and pointed ends were present. Tuber weights varied widely, ranging from one half to over 10 ounces, although most were in the two to eight ounce range. The specific gravities of the tubers, comparing tuber weights to that of water (1.000), averaged 1.037 when top growth was removed October 1 and 1.053 when tops were left on the plants until the December 18 harvest (Table 2). Tubers from plants spaced 12 inches apart had the highest specific gravities with both row spacings. 1981 Materials and Methods The experimental area was fertilized with 70 pounds of nitrogen (N) and 80 pounds of sulfur (S) per acre during seedbed preparation. An additional 40 pounds of N was banded along one side of each row on May 27. Small and cut tubers were planted April 3 with 30-inch row spacing and 18-inch plant spacing within the row. Treflan was applied at 0.75 pound of active ingredient per acre as a preplant incorporated treatment. The main variable imposed in 1981 was top growth removal from different plots on a monthly basis from June through October. All top growth was cut at or near ground level, weighed fresh and subsampled for dry matter content. -3- Table 1.

  • The Jerusalem Artichoke: Something New for Next Year's Garden?
    The Jerusalem Artichoke: Something New for Next Year’s Garden? By Joan Allen If you’re a gardener who likes to grow new vegetables, use native plants or support beneficial insects season-long, the Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) might be fun to try. As a member of the sunflower genus, this plant produces tall stems topped with bright yellow flowers. There are a few different theories on the origin of the name, which is a curiosity since it’s native to eastern North American. The most popular seems to be that ‘Jerusalem’ is an American twist on the Italian ‘girasole’ meaning ‘turning to the sun’. Other common names include sunchoke, earth apple or topinambour (French). Plants reach a height of 5-10 feet and produce flowers from August to October, providing a nice source of pollen and nectar for beneficial insects late in the season. The plants are sturdy and rather coarse. Leaves are 4-10” long, thick and rough, and have toothed edges. They are opposite on the lower stem and alternate above. Flowers are 3” across. This plant will do well in gardens in the northern two thirds of the eastern United States and tolerates a wide range of soil types and pH, although a bit alkaline is preferred. Soil should be well drained. A consistent water supply is especially important as the tubers (edible part) develop late in the summer. This is a VERY prolific plant. According to one reference, a single root can produce as many as 75-200 new tubers in a single year. On top of that, the plant is perennial and tends to spread, so it can become a bit of a problem in limited spaces if not kept in check.

Voss, Extension Vegetable Specialist. POINTS TO REMEMBER The bud, or immature flower, is the part of the artichoke that is harvested. The edible portions of the bud are the tender bases of the leaves (bracts), and the fleshy base upon which the flowers are borne (heart). The artichoke does best in frost-free areas having cool, foggy summers. Freezing temperatures kill the buds, and hot, dry conditions destroy their tenderness.

    A Horticulture Information article from the Wisconsin Master Gardener website, posted 13 Aug 2012 Swiss Chard Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris var. cicla in the Family Chenopodiaceae) is a type of beet that does not produce an edible root. Also know as silverbeet (mainly in New Zealand and Australia), chard is a biennial plant grown as an annual for its rosette of big crinkly leaves and/ or wide crunchy stems. The leaves are very similar to beet greens, but have prominent, enlarged midribs and are borne on Chard is grown for its edible leaves and petioles. stout petioles. Chard is also a decorative plant that can be used as an ornamental in the fl ower garden. Native to the Mediterranean, it was a popular food even before the days of the Roman Empire. It was once grown exclusively to be eaten at Christmas in the south of France, and constituted the highlight of the Christmas Eve meal. Only the petioles, with a fl avor reminiscent of artichoke hearts, were eaten. Chard leaves have prominent midribs. Chard prefers cool temperatures, as high temperatures slow down leaf production, but it tolerates heat better than spinach does and rarely bolts like spinach will. Swiss chard grows well regardless of soil type, daylength or temperature. You can plant chard from seed (actually seed clusters which contain several seeds), about a month before the average date of last frost through midsummer. You can also start plants indoors to transplant out later, but I’ve always had success with direct seeding early in the spring. Chard does best in full sun, although it tolerates partial shade and likes fertile, well-worked soil with good drainage and high Young chard plants.
