Prevention and Control of Palmer Amaranth in Cotton | Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri), a member of the "pigweed" family, is one of the most troublesome weeds in many southern row crops. Seed can germinate all season and plants can grow to over 6 feet in height. Plants have either male flowers that shed pollen or female flowers that can produce up to 600,000 seed per plant. One Palmer amaranth per 30 foot of row can reduce cotton yield by 6 to 12%. |

Sap Beetles | Adults are usually black or brown beetles with an oval to oblong shape. They have
clubbed or knobbed antennae and the economically important species typically measure
3–6 mm (0.12–0.24 inch) long. Some sap beetles have short wing covers that do not
cover the entire abdomen. Some species have flattened bodies while others are more
convex. Many sap beetles are a dull color, sometimes with mottling or spots. One
common sap beetle, the picnic beetle [Glischrochilus quadrisignatus (Say)], is an
attractive shiny black beetle with four yellow-orange bands or spots on the wing
covers. |

Getting Started in the Production of Field-Grown, Specialty Cut Flowers | Specialty cut flowers are one of the most profitable field
crops you can grow. Lynn Byczynski, editor of Growing
For Market newsletter (see Resources section),
estimates a value of $25,000 to $35,000 per acre for
field-grown cuts. The most basic requirements are at
least half an acre of open, arable land, a rototiller, and,
of course, time and effort. This publication is directed to
those new to market gardening, but commercial vegetable
growers, tobacco farmers, and young people interested
in summer income are all potential candidates.
Even grain and livestock farmers have increased profitability
in their operations by adding cut flower production.
For many greenhouse and nursery operations,
mid-summer business is slower, relative to spring. A
field-grown cut flower business is a viable option to fill
in the summer production and cash flow gap. |

Integrated Pest Management Peanut Scouting Manual | In the competitive global peanut market, you need to lower production costs. At the same time, you also need to keep pesticide residues in peanuts to a minimum; protect rivers, streams, and lakes from runoff; and prevent chemicals from leaching through the soil to groundwater. Using IPM to protect crops only from pests that are likely to cause economic losses is a good way to meet these goals.

Periodical Cicada | In Virginia both the 17-and 13-year cicadas damage many ornamental and hardwood trees. Oaks are commonly attacked but the most seriously damaged are newly planted fruit and ornamental trees such as apple, dogwood, peach, hickory, cherry, and pear. Pines and other conifers are not commonly attacked. |

The Peanut Southern Corn Rootworm Advisory | The southern corn rootworm (SCR) has long been considered
a major pest of peanuts in North Carolina and Virginia.
However, researchers and Extension faculty at Virginia
Tech and NC State have determined through more than 400
commercial field trials that the majority of peanut fields
do not need to be treated. They have developed and tested
a simple-to-use advisory that identifies those fields not at
risk for pod damage or economic loss. The Southern Corn
Rootworm Advisory can save you time and money as well as
help you use insecticides more efficiently. |

Corn Earworm Biology and Management in Soybeans | Corn earworm, Helicoverpa zea, is the most common and destructive insect pest of soybeans grown in Virginia. Although infestation severity varies, about one-third of our acreage is treated annually. This costs farmers 1.5 to 2 million dollars annually, and requires the application of many pounds of insecticide to crop lands. We may never eliminate this pest from Virginia soybeans, but knowledge of the biology and use of best management practices can help limit insecticide controls to those fields that meet economic threshold criteria. This publication provides current information on corn earworm biology, prediction of outbreaks, pest advisories, scouting procedures, and recently revised economic thresholds. |

Instructions for Completing the Plant Disease Diagnostic Form (#450-097) | The Plant Disease Diagnostic Form was designed to accommodate a wide variety of plants and growing situations; therefore, certain entries on this form may not be appropriate for a particular specimen or situation. Much of the information requested helps reconstruct the "field situation" for the diagnostician. Consider each section of the form carefully; the information provides important clues to the diagnostician that are significant in guiding the diagnostic process and formulating the control recommendation. Your local Extension office staff can assist you in completing the form and include the relevant information requested on the form, so when possible, complete the form with the assistance of your local VCE agent or VCE staff member. |

Soil Test Note #2 - Field Crops | Most Virginia soils are acidic and require lime applications at three- to five-year intervals. Maintaining the correct soil pH has several benefits, such as encouraging healthy root development and making sure nutrients in the soil are available to the plant. For example, low pH can cause aluminum toxicity and can decrease phosphorus availability. |

Soybean Reproductive Development Stages | Remove the soybean plant at ground level to make it easier to stage. Examine each main stem node one at a time to determine the development stage. Focus on the top four nodes that contain fully developed leaves (shown below). A fully developed leaf is one that is located immediately below a node containing a leaf with unrolled or unfolded leaflets (leaflet edges are no longer touching). The soybean crop is considered to be at a particular stage when 50% of the plants reach that stage. Listed with stage description for R1 through R6 are the approximate number of days to R7, or physiological maturity, for full season (FS) soybean planted in May and double crop (DC) soybean planted in June/July. |

late. These varieties are believed to be suitable for commercial production
under most conditions. |

Soil and Soil Water Relationships | This publication presents and discusses concepts
that are fundamental to understanding soil, water,
and plant relationships and the soil water balance.
Knowledge about soil water relationships can
inform the decision-making process in agricultural
operations or natural resource management, such as
determining what crops to plant, when to plant them,
and when various management practices should be
scheduled. Understanding these concepts is useful for
addressing both agronomic and policy issues related to
agricultural water management.Zachary M. Easton, Assistant Professor and Extension Specialist, Biological Systems Engineering, Virginia Tech

Importance of Farm Phosphorus Mass Balance and Management Options | Phosphorus is a naturally occurring element that is one
of 16 elements essential for plant growth and animal
health. Research has documented that applying phosphorus
in fertilizers or manure increases crop growth and
yield on soils that are below critical agronomic levels,
as measured during routine soil testing. Although the
economic benefits of phosphorus fertilization on crop
production are well-documented, too much of a good
thing can be detrimental to the environment. Excessive
soil phosphorus is a potential threat to water quality. |
