Integrated Pest Management (Ipm) for Connecticut Plant Science Day The Annual Samuel W. Johnson Lecture • Short Talks • Demonstrations • Field Experiments • Passport for Kids Pesticide Credits • Century Farm Award • Barn Exhibits Lockwood Farm, Hamden Wednesday, August 3, 2005 XYXYXYXYXYXY History of Lockwood Farm, Hamden Lockwood Farm is a research farm of the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station. Historically, the farm was purchased in 1910 with monies provided by the Lockwood Trust Fund, a private endowment. The original farm was 19.6 acres with a barn and a house. Since then, several adjacent tracts of land were purchased, enlarging the acres to 75.0. The farm is located in the extreme southern portion of the Central Lowland Physiographic Province. This lowland region is underlain by red stratified sandstone and shale of Triassic age from which resistant lava flows project as sharp ridges. One prominent ridge, observed from the farm, is Sleeping Giant Mountain that lies to the north. The mountain is composed of basalt, a dense igneous rock commonly used as a building material and ballast for railroad tracks. The topography of the farm is gently rolling to hilly and was sculpted by the Wisconsin glacier that overrode the area some 10,000 years ago and came to rest in the vicinity of Long Island. A prominent feature of the farm is a large basaltic boulder that was plucked from Sleeping Giant by the advancing glacier and came to rest on the crest of a hillock to the south of the upper barns. From this hillock, Sleeping Giant State Park comes into full view and is a favorite spot for photographers and artists. The soils of the farm developed on glacial drift composed primarily of the underlying reddish brown sedimentary rocks. The soils, characterized by reddish-brown profiles, are the well-drained Cheshire fine sandy loam (67%), the moderately well- drained Watchaug loam (10%) and the shallow-to-bedrock Sunderland fine sandy loam (16%). Along the western edge of the farm, adjacent to the Farmington Canal Greenway, lies a level terrace of stratified glacial drift. There, the well-drained Branford loam and the moderately well-drained Ellington loam (7%) dominate. Elevations on the farm range from 140 to 220 feet above mean sea level. The farm lies in the Coastal Plain Climatological District. The local climate is influenced by its proximity to Long Island Sound that lies 9 miles to the south. The average frost-free season is 190 days compared to 180 days at the inland Valley Laboratory in Windsor. In 1936, a fully instrumented weather station was established on the farm. The weather data are reported to and published by the U.S. Weather Service in their cooperative observer program. The mean annual temperature for the farm is 49.0 F. A record high temperature, 104 F, was observed on July 4, 1949. A record low temperature, -24 F was recorded on February 16, 1943. The mean annual precipitation for the farm is 52.6 inches. The greatest total precipitation, 71.2 inches, was recorded in 1983. The least precipitation, 30.4 inches, was recorded in 1965. The mean annual snowfall for the farm is 32.3 inches. The greatest total snowfall, 78.5 inches, was recorded during the winter of 1995-1996. The least total snowfall, 11.3 inches, was recorded in 1972-1973. The farm provides a field laboratory for many scientists at the Experiment Station who learn how to control the pathogens and insects that attack trees, fruit, and vegetables. In some experiments, scientists learn how crops grow and develop strategies for efficient crop production. All field research can be observed at Plant Science Day, held on the first Wednesday in August. XYXYXYXYXYXY XYXYXYXYXYXY CENTURY FARM AWARD The Century Farm Award goes to a farm that has been in family operation for more than 100 years. The recipient is selected by the Connecticut Agriculture and Natural Resources Association. CENTURY FARM CITATION Tulmeadow Farm West Simsbury, Connecticut Members of the Tuller family have been farming the land in West Simsbury continuously since 1768. Tulmeadow Farm, at 255 Farms Village Road, is currently operated by cousins Oliver “Buzz” Tuller, Jr. and Don Tuller. The 265-acre farm, comprised of fields and woodland, provides rural character to the village of West Simsbury. Like many New England farms, diversification and changing with the times have been critical to the survival of the Tulmeadow Farm the last 237 years. Dairy production was a major focus until recently. Other past activities included poultry (meat and eggs), broadleaf tobacco, apples, charcoal and cider brandy production, and sand and gravel sales. Today, sweet corn, tomatoes, greenhouse crops, and other farm-raised produce are marketed at the farm store. In addition, other local fruits, vegetables, food products, plants, and Christmas trees are sold. Premium ice cream is produced and sold at the farm, bringing approximately 90,000 visitors to the farm annually. Hay and beef production are developing product lines. The Tullers recently sold the development rights on part of the farm to the Simsbury Land Trust. This will enable Tulmeadow Farm to continue for future generations. The Tullers are active in agricultural organizations, including the Farm Service Agency Board and the Connecticut Farm Bureau, and belong to the Connecticut Greenhouse Growers Association. As Governor, I am happy to join with the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station and Natural Resources Association in presenting this Century Farm Award to the Tullers, who are most deserving of this honor. XYXYXYXYXYXY XYXYXYXYXYXY THE SAMUEL W. JOHNSON MEMORIAL LECTURE The Station Board of Control established the lectureship to further discussion of issues of concern to Connecticut residents and the Station. Professor Johnson was director of the Station from 1877 to 1900 and was a leader in the establishment of American agricultural experiment stations. ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS Staff in the question-and-answer tent are prepared to give information on identification of insects, plant disorders, soils and their management, and other problems of growers and gardeners. PASSPORT FOR CHILDREN This is a special event for children to enjoy and explore Plant Science Day. There are six different stations located throughout the Farm that they can visit and receive a special stamp for their passport.

Bugbee, Soil Scientist, Department of Soil & Water Lawn Fertilizer and the Environment (15-minute demonstration, repeated twice during the day, 10:00 a.m. & 1:30 p.m.) More lawn fertilizer is applied to Connecticut land than all other fertilizers combined. Misapplication or overuse can cause harmful effects on the environment. This talk will focus on the risks associated with lawn fertilizer and how proper usage provides quality turf without harm to the environment. Techniques, including fertilizing based on soil tests, choosing the right fertilizer, utilizing buffer zones, timing applications to correspond with plant uptake, fertilizing techniques that minimize application to paved areas, and reducing lawn size will be discussed. 10:15 a.m. MAIN TENT William R. Nail, Horticulturalist, Department of Forestry and Horticulture Wine Grape Culture in Connecticut Many factors need to be considered before planting a vineyard in Connecticut. Site selection is critical to help avoid spring and fall frosts and maximize sunlight. Most soils require preparation prior to planting. Varieties must be selected that are adaptable to our soils, our cold winters, and warm, humid summers. The choice of pruning and training systems should be matched to the varieties being grown. 10:40 a.m. MAIN TENT Claire E.

  • Documenting and Protecting New England's Old-Growth Forests
    Documenting and Protecting New England’s Old-Growth Forests Written By: Jack Ruddat Documenting and Protecting New England’s Old-Growth Forests An Interactive Qualifying Project submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science by Jack Ruddat Date: May 13, 2020 Report Submitted to: Dr. Uma Kumar and Dr. Ingrid Shockey Worcester Polytechnic Institute This report represents work of WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, see http://www.wpi.edu/Academics/Projects Abstract Old-growth forests in New England have become exceedingly rare over the centuries but contribute greatly to biodiversity, ecological stability, and scientific knowledge. Many of these remaining forests are either unrecognized or lack protection from development. The goal of this project was to promote the preservation and appreciation for old-growth forests in New England. The state of Connecticut was chosen for mapping and documenting remaining standing old- growth forests, understanding stakeholders’ positions and preservation practices, and identifying suitability for public visitation. i Executive Summary Executive Summary Old-growth forests in the United States can be identified as areas of land that have been continuously forested since before the early to mid-1800’s (Jönsson, Fraver, & Jonsson, 2009; Kershner & Leverett, 2004). They have become exceedingly rare over the centuries but contribute greatly to biodiversity and ecological stability (MacKinnon, 1998). Furthermore, they are laboratories for scientific knowledge regarding forest succession and development, plant relationships, and nutrient cycling (David et al., 1996).

  • A.T. History & Cooperative Management
    Appalachian Trail Cooperative Management History After several decades of Appalachian Trail (A.T.) design and construction by A.T. clubs and the Appalachian Trail Conservancy (ATC) the A.T. became one of the first of two national scenic trails designated under the 1968 National Trails System Act. The purpose of that Act was to provide the means to develop a national trails system for “the ever-increasing outdoor recreation needs of an expanding population and in order to promote the preservation of, public access to, travel within, and enjoyment and appreciation of the open-air, outdoor areas and historic resources of the Nation.” The Act promoted the development of trails “primarily, near the urban areas of the Nation, and secondarily, within scenic areas and along historic travel routes of the Nation which are often more remotely located.” The Act formally recognized the Department of the Interior, in consultation with the Department of Agriculture, as the administrator for the Appalachian National Scenic Trail. It also recognized the important role of volunteers and nonprofit organizations to support the federal agencies: “The Congress recognizes the valuable contributions that volunteers and private, nonprofit trail groups have made to the development and maintenance of the Nation's trails. In recognition of these contributions, it is further the purpose of this Act to encourage and assist volunteer citizen involvement in the planning, development, maintenance, and management, where appropriate, of trails.” The most significant outcome of the 1968 Act, and its 1978 amendments, was to provide a federal framework to acquire lands and permanently protect a Trail corridor.
