Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tenth Technical Alfalfa Conference Proceedings: Held at Reno, Nevada, July 11, 1968 In summary, insects do cause quite measurable losses in feed quality of alfalfa. These losses can best be minimized by the selection for and inclusion of resistance toward those insects in alfalfa. Chemical control is not generally practiced in alfalfa forage crops because of many factors, including cost, residue hazards, and lack of understanding of actual losses due to insects. I have suggested some methods I believe will improve selection for resistance to potato leafhopper, which will result in more rapid progress in obtaining the resistance than has been experienced to date. Perhaps the actual heritability is much higher than previously thought, when the various factors affecting resistance are treated separately. Resistance to the pea aphid and spotted alfalfa aphid is quite effective and relatively easy to obtain. Resistance to the Lygus bug complex has been sought and may be aided by aphid and mealybug reduction through resistance to those insects. Spittle bug losses may also be lessened through selec tion for resistance both toward it and toward the potato leafhopper even though genetic relationship has not been shown for resistance in alfalfa toward those two insects.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eighth Technical Alfalfa Conference Proceedings: Held at Colorado Springs, Colorado, February 6, 1963 For brevity, these results are reported on a subject-matter basis with out regard for location of work, in general. Agronomic. California studies on the effects of plant nutrition and harvest procedures are reported in their Experiment Station Bulletin 784 entitled Controlling alfalfa quality. The studies were extensive. This bulletin was mentioned in Behy Review and other media. It is available upon request from the California station. Alfalfa fertilizer requirements for the Rio Grande Valley of Texas revealed exceptionally favorable response to phosphate. The Bray method for determining phosphate requirement could be modified for use with alkaline soils. Studies of the root system of sub-irrigated alfalfa revealed two impor tant regions for water and nutrient sorption-the moisture fringe above the water table and the surface soil. In land continuously cropped to alfalfa, phosphate content was reduced to the ll-foot level. Available nutrients in the soil substrata must be evaluated before reasonable fertilizer recommendations can be made. This was some of the initial work on the use of radioactive chemicals.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eleventh Technical Alfalfa Conference Proceedings: Held July 29 and 30, 1971, Albany, Calif Green leaves are the world's largest source of protein. Although this protein has excellent nutritional quality, leaves have limited use for monogastric animals because of the presence of indigestible fiber. Scientists have long known that crushing or grinding green plant material to break the cell walls yields a juice containing a high percentage of the plant protein. This laboratory has been interested in this process for many years and basic steps were reported in Chemurgic Digest in 1947. They consisted of grinding the fresh alfalfa through a disintegrator to break down the cell walls, expressing the liberated juice from the ground tissues by hydraulic pressure, heating the press juice to coagulate the protein, separating the curd from the brown whey-like juice, and drying the curd to yield the leaf protein concentrate containing no fiber and 40 percent or more of protein. However, more recently the development of high-energy poultry rations has been reducing the market for high-fiber products such as dehydrated alfalfa meal. Therefore, a large potential market exists for a low-fiber, high-xanthophyll supplement for broilers and laying hens which can be fulfilled by leaf-protein concentrate. The green color of the chlorophyll will enhance rather than detract from the market value of the product for chick feed. Dehydrated alfalfa meal can be prepared from the pressed cake to meet the present market grades. Wet fractionation is easily incorporated into a conventional dehydrated alfalfa meal production process. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
