Protein-energy supplements for beef heifers
by John L. Hull, Richard E. Delmas, Edward J. DePeters
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
Recent studies concerned with the growth and development of replacement beef heifers bred to calve as two-year-olds have shown that protein-energy supplementation for such heifers grazing irrigated pasture will enhance average daily gain over conventional energy supplementation.

Improving codling moth trap catches
by Philip S. McNally, Martin M. Barnes
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
Not available – first paragraph follows: One to three insecticide treatments are required each season to control codling moth, a major insect pest in the 200,000 acres of walnuts, apples, and plums grown in California. Pheromone traps have been used for the last ten years to monitor moth populations so that insecticide applications can be timed for the most effective control. These traps have also been tested as a means of estimating codling moth infestations and suppressing populations by mass-trapping the adult males.

Nematodes in pistachio orchards
by Michael V. McKenry, Joseph O. Kretsch
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
Not available – first paragraph follows: During the 1940s a U.S. Department of Agriculture selection program for rootstocks of pistachio (Pistacia spp.) included those with resistance to the root knot nematodes Meloidogyne spp. From the early 1960s until 1975, pistachio acreage in California increased from less than 650 to more than 32,000 acres.
