Vol. 2016 No. 3
New & Revised April 2016

 

April new #EDISpubs in the Agriculture program area include

  • Crops: a remedy for salt-stress, growing leafy greens in protected structures, downy mildew in cucurbits, spotted wing drosophila in berries, and two new UF-developed potato varieties
  • Citrus: economic reports for Indian River grapefruit and Ridge processed oranges
  • Aquaculture: an overview of molluscan aquaculture (e.g. clams, oysters, mussels, and scallops)

 

 

April’s Environment #EDISPubs offerings include

 

  • Environment: Consumer perceptions of lawn & garden products (neonic-free plants, lawn fertilizers), and how people want to learn about agricultural water use
  • Ecosystems & Species: biology and management of hydrilla, and how best to keep deer from eating up food plots before they’re established

This edition of New Lawn & Garden #EDISpubs for April is short but impactful. First we have some much anticipated major revisions of some very important lawn and garden publications:  Insect Pest Management on Turfgrass, and Landscape Integrated Pest Management.  The popular identification guide Common Pines of Florida has also been returned to EDIS.  UF/IFAS specialists offer valuable and timely advice in fact sheets on saving salt-stressed plants in coastal areas by “chemigating” with hydrogen peroxide, how to handle “end of life” decisions for backyard trees under attack by wood-boring insects, and what research shows may be the best strategy to keep deer from devouring food plots before they’ve had a chance to get established.

New Program Development #EDISPubs for April include water conservation Extension program development, starting a community garden, integrating critical thinking into extension programming, agricultural awareness.
