Evaluation of High Tunnel and Field Produced Specialty Cut Flowers in the Northern Great Plains
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
The demand for local sustainably grown produce and flowers has increased (Low et al., 2015), and stimulated a growing interest in high tunnel production. The goal of this research project was to evaluate the production of ...
Carbohydrate-Based Micro and Nano Scale Materials from Soybean Meal, Distillers Dried Grains, and Sugar Beet Pulp for Food and other Applications
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Study 1 was carried out to isolate and produce enzyme resistant micro and nano scale carbohydrates from soybean meal (SBM), distillers dried grains (DDG), and sugar beet pulp (SBP). All materials produced were in micro and ...
Impact of Planting Date, Cultivar, Phosphorus, Potassium, and Fungicide Seed Treatments on Winter Wheat Survival and Yield
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Field experiments and greenhouse studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and fungicides on winter survival, and yield of winter-wheat in North Dakota. The study was conducted as a ...
Intersowing Cover Crops Into Standing Soybean in the Upper Midwest
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
In order to reduce nutrient losses and soil erosion in the United States Upper Midwest following soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], cover crops can be intersown into standing soybean. The objective of this study was to ...
Hop Establishment Impacted by Mulch Type and Nitrogen Source
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Agronomic research is lacking for hops (Humulus lupulus), especially in North Dakota (ND) and the northern Great Plains, where demand has risen. This research was done to evaluate factors influencing hops establishment in ...
Postemergence Efficacy of Pyroxasulfone at Different Rates and Timings in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Pyroxasulfone is a VLCFA inhibitor labeled to control grasses and small-seeded broadleaf weeds. Little information is available regarding this herbicide being applied postemergence. Two field experiments were conducted ...
Understanding and Improving Depth Perception from Motion Parallax in Older Adults
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Successful navigation in the world requires effective visuospatial processing. Unfortunately, older adults have many visuospatial deficits, which can have severe real-world consequences. It is therefore crucial to understand ...
Wheat Traits Variations, Associations, and Potential Improvement from Crosses of Elite X Non-Adapted Germplasm
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
Wheat improvement most often has been accompanied by a narrowing germplasm base, as newer cultivars have been derived from intercrosses between elite germplasm. However, there is a concern that narrow germplasm may restrict ...
Kernel and Milling Characteristics of Durum Genotypes Grown in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Two sets of durum samples were used to determine kernel characteristics and milling properties of durum genotypes grown in North Dakota, USA. Kernels were characterized for kernel size (length, width, and thickness), germ ...
Strategies for Optimizing Nitrogen Use in Corn with and without Subsurface Drainage
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
Excessive soil moisture can impact planting date, plant establishment, and N availability, resulting in reduced yields and N use efficiency. Nitrogen management practices such as use of urease and nitrification inhibitors, ...
