Long term high tunnel production: Grafting tomatoes
My farm consists of 225 acres on hilly land in Lancaster County, PA. We grow a diversity of crops and our early tomatoes are grown in two acres of multi-bay high tunnels. I reluctantly was forced to fumigate in the tunnels due to problems with verticillium wilt (race 2). At my farm, we have looked at grafting to manage verticillium and other soilborne diseases in our tunnels, and have seen that...
متن کاملEconomic Evaluation of Artificial Lighting in Vegetable Greenhouses (Case Study: Cucumber Production in Hamadan Province)
Sunlight, as a natural resource, is an important factor in agriculture, which is supplied indefinitely and without any charge by the sun. But some phenomena such as cloudy weather or shortening the length of the day throughout the year, cause restrictions on access to this important source. This is very important for cultivation in controlled environments such as greenhouses, which usually prod...
متن کاملEmergy analysis of greenhouse cucumber production in Sistan region
In the current century, agriculture sustainability and the reduction of environmental pressure are two main objectives of the management of agro-ecosystems that is challenged by energy inefficiency. In this respect, the present study assessed one of the most important planting systems in Sistan region by emergy analysis approach. It analyzed all inputs of greenhouse cucumber production system i...
متن کاملA role of brassinosteroids in early fruit development in cucumber
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are essential for many biological processes in plants, however, little is known about their roles in early fruit development. To address this, BR levels were manipulated through the application of exogenous BRs (24-epibrassinolide, EBR) or a BR biosynthesis inhibitor (brassinazole, Brz) and their effects on early fruit development, cell division, and expression of cyclin ...
متن کاملInfluences of Rootstock Cultivar and Storage on the Texture of Cucumber Fruits
In order to clarify the influence of the rootstock cultivar and fruit storage on the texture of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) fruit, we examined the physical properties of the fruit, i.e., flesh firmness, placental firmness, skin toughness, and the crispness index. Cucumber fruits from own-rooted plants and from plants grafted onto the three rootstock cultivars of ‘Shin-tosa’ (Cucurbita maxima ...
