Industrial Hemp - Production And Management - Manitoba Agriculture And Food
Covers varieties; seeding; fertility; pest control; harvest, storage, grading, and yield; as well as general information on crop production and soil quality in Manitoba. By Manitoba Agriculture and Food.
http://www.gov.mb.ca/agriculture/crops/hemp/bko01s01.html

Extractions: February, 2001 Hemp is tolerant of light spring frosts, and hard fall frosts will assist maturity by killing green leaf tissue remaining as the seeds mature. Hemp performs well on a range of soil types, but is intolerant of poor drainage conditions - saturated soil will quickly cause stunting, yellowing, and death of plants. Table of Contents: Maturity Hemp varieties are available which mature to seed in 120 - 150 days. Later maturing cultivars are suitable for high yield fibre production. Consideration of maturity is somewhat complicated by the fact that hemp varieties are photoperiod sensitive - no matter when the crop is sown, it will tend to flower at about the same calendar date. Hence earlier sowing should result in a larger plant with higher yield potential, but may have only a minor effect on when the crop matures. The following varieties have been grown in Manitoba trials in 1995,1996 and 1997 (note that the descriptions are based on very limited experience and data in Manitoba and are to be used as a general guide only):

Publications We undertake a wide range of studies on the agronomy and physiology of temperate arable and forage crops. The aim of the work is primarily to determine the influence of agronomic practices on the physiological basis of crop yield and quality. Recently such studies have evaluated key management practices within cereals, oilseed rape and grain legume crops. Collaborative research continues to be undertaken with the Arable Research Centres on the management of cereal crops. More fundamental work, for example on the creation and evaluation of novel genotypes of oilseed rape is carried out together with the John Innes Institute and the effects of sulphur nutrition on the yield and quality of wheat with IACR, Rothamsted with either Research Council or HGCA funding, and the evaluation of stem cuttings for seed potato production with support from the Sri Lankan Government. We also have a reputation in the restoration of land to agricultural and amenity uses after opencast mining. Though based on applied aspects of soil science and crop production, this study also extended into an ecological study of species-rich grasslands, linking with another of our projects on the productivity and ecology of hay meadows in the Pennine Dales. This latter project was funded by a Joint Research Council initiative and by MAFF and involved collaboration with Agricultural and Environmental Science, NERC and with Sheffield University. The

Zinc For Crop Production

http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/cropsystems/DC0720.html

Extractions: For Crop Production George Rehm and Michael Schmitt Z inc (Zn) is an essential nutrient required in some fertilizer programs for crop production in Minnesota. While some soils are capable of supplying adequate amounts for crop production, addition of zinc fertilizers is needed for others. In Minnesota, Zn may be needed in fertilizer programs for production of corn, sweet corn, and edible beans. Several research projects have focused on the use of this nutrient, and much of the following information is based on the results of that research. The specific role of Zn in growth and development of plants is not known. This nutrient is an important component of various enzymes that are responsible for driving many metabolic reactions in all crops. Growth and development would stop if specific enzymes were not present in plant tissue. Zinc, however, is needed in very small amounts. Plant uptake of this nutrient is calculated in terms of ounces per acre instead of pounds per acre. Therefore, Zn is classified as a micronutrient.

Extractions: Previous Story ... Related Stories Next Story Source: American Society Of Agronomy Date: Gilles Bélanger, project leader, said, "This might be a surprise to many that warmer winter conditions will mean greater risks to perennial forage crops. Perennial forage crops in Canada and in the northern part of the United States prefer the comfort of a nice snow cover after a good rest period in the fall. Rain, ice, and no snow cover in the middle of the winter will occur more often in the future; this brings no comfort to perennial forage crops." For this study, conducted from 1999 to 2001, scientists developed agro-climatic indices related to the effect of climate conditions on winter survival of perennial forage crops. These agro-climatic indices were then calculated for current conditions (1961-90) and two future periods (2010-39, 2040-69). Sixty-nine climatic stations located in all agricultural areas of Eastern Canada were used. For forage producers, climate change will mean increased risks in an agricultural industry already facing major challenges. The authors of the study, however, are confident that current and future research efforts in the development of improved cultivars and the adaptation of management practices will help producers make the best of climate change.
