  • Environmental Adaptation of Forages in Lao PDR
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE THIRD REGIONAL MEETING OF THE FSP Environmental adaptation of forages in Lao PDR Phonepaseuth Phengsavanh1 and Viengsavanh Phimphachanhvongsod2 In Lao PDR, livestock production is almost totally a smallholder farming practice and is a vital component of livelihood security. Animals generally graze on native forages (grasses, shrubs, legumes, and tree leaves) that are available in forests and grasslands. However, native grass is abundant only during the wet season. Dry season feed shortages are common, resulting in severe animal feeding problems for farmers throughout the country. There are currently few, if any, alternative feed sources. For many years, some Hmong farmers, who live on the fertile highland soils in Luang Phabang and Xieng Khouang, have fed grazing animals Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum) as a supplement. Some farmers in Xieng Khouang have recently started to use Ruzi grass (Brachiaria ruziziensis) for the same purpose. However, in general, very few farmers in Lao PDR plant forages. This does not mean that there is no demand. The severity of feed resource limitations in some provinces (especially Luang Phabang and Xieng Khouang) is creating a huge interest in planted forages among farmers. To meet this demand, the Department of Livestock and Fisheries, in collaboration with the Forages for Smallholders Project, established forage nurseries at five different agro-ecological sites in four provinces to evaluate forage adaptation for subsequent on- farm testing at Namsuang (Vientiane municipality), Houakhoth and Houaphai (Luang Phabang), Ban Km 32 (Oudomxay), and Khinak (Champassak). Site descriptions The soil pH (1:5 water) at these sites varied from very acid to neutral (Table 1).

    Use of the Cover Crop Weed Index to Evaluate Weed Suppression by Cover Crops in Organic Citrus Orchards Jose Linares, Johannes Scholberg1, and Kenneth Boote University of Florida, Agronomy Department, 304 Newell Hall, Gainesville, FL 32611-0500 Carlene A. Chase and James J. Ferguson University of Florida, Horticultural Sciences Department, 1301 Fifield Hall, Gainesville, FL 32611-0690 Robert McSorley University of Florida, Entomology and Nematology Department, Building 970, Natural Area Drive, Gainesville, FL 32611-0620 Additional index words. weed management, annual cover crops, summer cover crops, weed suppression index, winter cover crops, perennial peanut, Arachis glabrata Abstract. Citrus is one of the most important crops in Florida. During the past decade, increased international competition and urban development, diseases, and more stringent environmental regulations have greatly affected the citrus industry. Citrus growers transitioning to organic production may benefit from premium prices, but they also face many challenges, including development of effective weed management strategies. Cover crops (CC) may constitute an environmentally sound alternative for improved weed management in organic systems. Two field experiments were conducted at Citra in north central Florida from 2002 to 2005, to evaluate the effectiveness of annual and perennial CC to suppress weeds in organic citrus groves. To quantify and compare the effectiveness of CC to suppress weed growth, a new weed suppression assessment tool, the cover crop/weed index (CCWI), was developed using the ratio of biomass accumulation of CC and weeds. Annual summer CC accumulated more biomass in comparison with winter CC. Sunnhemp (Crotalaria juncea L.), hairy indigo (Indigofera hirsuta L.), cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.

  • Common Names
    Common Names Only genus and species are given in the common names list, for quick identification. Entries in all capitals indicate common names applicable, or largely applicable, to an entire genus. Go to the scientific names list for the complete citation, including authorities and any further subclassification, or for older names (synonyms). See that list also for additional species with no readily recognized common name. In both lists, the variety of common names in use is represented, not just the recommended forms using a single common name per genus. Bean, for example, is recommended only for Phaseolus spp., vetch only for Vicia spp., and so forth. By this rule, castorbean (Ricinus sp.) is thus correctly formed, but broad bean (Vicia sp.) is not. Both types of common names are included. 2-rowed barley – Hordeum distichon 6-rowed barley – Hordeum vulgare African bermudagrass – Cynodon transvaalensis African cotton – Gossypium anomalum alemangrass – Echinochloa polystachya alfalfa – Medicago spp. alfalfa, cultivated – Medicago sativa alfalfa, diploid – Medicago murex alfalfa, glanded – Medicago sativa alfalfa, purple-flowered – Medicago sativa alfalfa, sickle – Medicago falcata alfalfa, variegated – Medicago sativa alfalfa, wild – Medicago prostrata alfalfa, yellow-flowered – Medicago falcata alkali sacaton – Sporobolus airoides alkaligrass – Puccinellia spp. alkaligrass, lemmon – Puccinellia lemmonii alkaligrass, nuttall – Puccinellia airoides alkaligrass, weeping – Puccinellia distans alsike clover – Trifolium hybridum Altai wildrye

  • Biological Survey Report
    FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT APPENDIX E BIOLOGICAL SURVEY REPORT Na Pua Makani Wind Project BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES SURVEY NA PUA MAKANI WIND ENERGY PROJECT KAHUKU, KOOLAULOA, OAHU, HAWAII by Robert W. Hobdy Environmental Consultant Kokomo, Maui July 2013 Prepared for: Tetra Tech, Inc. 1 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES SURVEY NA PUA MAKANI WIND ENERGY PROJECT KAHUKU, KOOLAULOA, OAHU INTRODUCTION The Na Pua Makani Wind Energy Project lies on 685 acres of land above Kahuku Town, Koolauloa, Oahu TMK’s (1) 5-6-08:06 and (1) 5-6-06:16. It is surrounded by agricultural farm lands to the north and east and by undeveloped forested lands to the west and south. This biological study was initiated in fulfillment of environmental requirements of the planning process. SITE DESCRIPTION The project consists of steep, dissected ridges surrounding gently sloping valleys. Elevations rise steeply behind Kahuku Town to about 250 ft., while the inland ridges rise to nearly 350 ft. Soils include Kaena Stony Clay, 12-20% slopes (KaeD), Paumalu Badlands Complex (PZ), which is highly dissected and steep, and with coral outcrops (CR) at elevations below 100 ft. (Foote et al. 1972). Rainfall averages 45 in. to 50 in. per year with most falling during a few winter storms (Armstrong, 1983). Vegetation consists mostly of low, windblown shrubs and trees on the ridge tops and larger trees and brush on the slopes and in the gullies. BIOLOGICAL HISTORY In pre-contact times the lower, more gently sloping lands would have been extensively farmed by a large Hawaiian population that lived in the lower valleys and along the sea shore.

  • Isolation and Phenotypic Characterization Ofalysicarpus From
    FOOD SCIENCE Volume 5 | Issue 1 | April, 2014 | 1-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE RESEARCH JOURNAL Isolation and phenotypic characterization of Alysicarpus from arid region CHANDRAVEER AND MANISH CHITTORA In this research work, nodulation in Alysicarpus vaginalis were studied and also root nodulating bacteria were phenotypically characterized. Nodules were found associated with tap roots as well as on lateral roots. The number of nodules/plants varied according to the sampling site characterized by type of soil, soil moisture and nutrients. In Alysicarpus vaginalis, number of nodules (>100) in well water conditions was found. In field conditions too the number of nodules/ plants was high in Alysicarpus vaginalis. Rhizobia have been isolated from root nodules of Alysicarpus vaginalis a native legumes species growing in arid and semi arid regions of Western Rajasthan. Rhizobia isolates were Gram negative, small rods. Typical rhizobial colonies (raised, lens shaped, white translucent, watery, some time gummy, mucous etc.) were obtained, purified and used for phenotypic characterization. Rhizobial isolates from Alysicarpus vaginalis observed to be slow growing hence, low acid production was observed. It possessed sensitivity toward test antibiotics used in this study.
