Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With more than 45,000 sold since 1989, The New Organic Grower has become a modern classic. In this newly revised and expanded edition, master grower Eliot Coleman continues to present the simplest and most sustainable ways of growing top-quality organic vegetables. Coleman updates practical information on marketing the harvest, on small-scale equipment, and on farming and gardening for the long-term health of the soil. The new book is thoroughly updated, and includes all-new chapters such as: Farm-Generated Fertility—how to meet your soil-fertility needs from the resources of your own land, even if manure is not available. The Moveable Feast—how to construct home-garden and commercial-scale greenhouses that can be easily moved to benefit plants and avoid insect and disease build-up. The Winter Garden—how to plant, harvest, and sell hardy salad crops all winter long from unheated or minimally heated greenhouses. Pests—how to find "plant-positive" rather than "pest-negative" solutions by growing healthy, naturally resistant plants. The Information Resource—how and where to learn what you need to know to grow delicious organic vegetables, no matter where you live. Written for the serious gardener or small market farmer, The New Organic Grower proves that, in terms of both efficiency and profitability, smaller can be better.

Download or read book The Effects of Tillage and Irrigation on Sweet Corn Zea Mays L Development Yield and Water Use written by Kerry L. Petersen and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Jubilee' sweet corn was grown under conventional tillage and strip tillage in 1982 and under conventional tillage, strip tillage and no-till culture in 1983. Effects on soil temperature, stand establishment, plant development parameters, overall yield, yield components, and water use efficiency were measured. In 1982, conventional tillage appeared to have a higher yield than strip tillage but the difference was not significant. The 1983 conventional tillage treatment was significantly higher than the strip tillage treatment yield, which in turn was greater than for that of no-till. Yield parameters in both seasons indicated the strip tillage resulted in fewer and less mature ears at harvest than did the conventional tillage treatment. The yield parameters from the no-till treatment in 1983 were also lower than those of the conventional tillage treatment. Depression in plant development parameters and resulting yield appeared to be strongly related to lower soil temperature the first 30 days after planting, which was always highest in the conventional tillage treatment unless the soil was recently hydrated. The cropwater production functions for yield vs. evapotranspiration were different in scale but similar in slope for the three tillage treatments in 1983. The strip tillage and no-till methods did not use water as efficiently as the conventional tillage method to produce the same unit of yield.
