An Evaluation of Hemipteran Pests and Cotton in Alabama
(2024-04-30)
Hemipterans have been major pests in cotton since the end of the Boll Weevil Eradication Program and the advent of transgenic cotton. The objective of this study is to provide better insights into integrated resistance ...
Evaluation Of High Moisture And Dry Feed Both With And Without Hay Fed To Feeder Calves Subjected To Transportation Shrink
(2013-03-22)
Two backgrounding trials were carried out to evaluate the effects of diet on shrink both with and without hay offering 48-h prior to shipment, as well as subsequent weight recovery post-shipment. In trial 1, forty-eight ...
Evaluation of Horticulture Applications of Light Expanded Clay Aggregates
(2008-05-15)
People involved in the nursery industry continue to seek more sustainable options to implement into production regimes. This search has been provoked by environmental and economic reasons. Several areas of popular nursery ...
The Evaluation of HPPD-Inhibitors for Full-Season Control of Morningglory (Ipomoea) Species in Corn (Zea mays L.)
(2018-11-15)
Several HPPD (4-phenylhydroxypyruvate dioxygenase) products are currently available in corn including standalone HPPD products and products with multiple mechanisms of action (MOA). Some of these are combination products ...
Evaluation of Hydrated Lime Treatment of Free-stall Bedding and Efficacy of Teat Sealant on Incidence of Dairy Cow Mastitis
(2006-05-15)
Dairy cow mastitis is the inflammation of the mammary gland caused by trauma, chemical irritations and by infection caused by microorganisms. Mastitis is estimated to cost the US dairy industry about $1.8 billion annually. ...
Evaluation of Hydromulches as an Erosion Control Measure Using Intermediate-Scale Experiments
(2010-05-20)
Discharge of sediment-laden stormwater from active construction sites, such as highway construction projects, is a growing concern in the construction industry (Zech et al. 2007, 2008). The United States Environmental ...
Evaluation of In-Place Concrete Strength by Core Testing
(2014-12-16)
When the average compressive strength of molded cylinder specimens do not meet the minimum required strength for a batch of concrete, testing must be performed on the in-place concrete to evaluate its strength. There are ...
Evaluation of Indicator of Reduction in Soil (IRIS) Tubes to Verify Wetland Hydrology in Constructed Wetlands
(2018-11-15)
Wetlands are essential components of the environment that provide unique functions and values to the ecosystems in which they occur. As urban population and the economy continue to grow, impacts to wetlands are unavoidable ...
EVALUATION OF INFILTRATION SWALE MEDIA USING SMALL- AND INTERMEDIATE-SCALE TESTING TECHNIQUES
(2024-04-26)
When impervious surfaces such as paved roadways are constructed, the volume of water infiltrating into native soil decreases, leading to an increase in surface water runoff. This phenomenon results in higher peak flows, ...
Evaluation of Inlet Protection Practices (IPPs) Using Large-Scale Testing Techniques
(2014-11-24)
Most roadway construction efforts disturb existing vegetation thereby exposing bare soil to environmental variables that cause erosion. Soil eroded during storm events is conveyed by stormwater runoff and may become ...
Evaluation of Integrated Weed Management and Herbicide Tolerance in Peanut-Cotton Rotation
(2021-07-13)
As resistant weeds such as Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri L.) continue to spread through the Southeast, peanut-cotton producers are forced to utilize herbicides which pose a greater risk to injuring crops to control ...
