Extractions: Career Opportunities for Majors in Plant Science A bachelor's degree is sufficient for advanced technician jobs in the medical field, lab research assistant positions, or testing and inspection jobs. An advanced degree is required for most other positions in the scientific field. While most plant science graduates work in related occupations and eventually obtain advanced degrees, others choose different directions. Many careers do not require a specific major but rather a wide range of demonstrated skills and accomplishments. Regardless of your career choices, increase your marketability to employers through internships, responsible work experience, good grades, and involvement in college activities.

Meetings During April 1997 I was hired by the Alaska Cooperative Extension program to fill the forestry specialist position that was previously filled by Tony Gasbarro. Although my background and experience is significantly different, I will continue to strive to meet our mission "to interpret and extend relevant research based knowledge in an understandable and usable form and to encourage the application of this knowledge to solve the problems and meet the challenges that face the people of Alaska." Since moving to Fairbanks, I have been able to meet with many different organizations and individuals. During July I gave two talks in the Homer area regarding the impact of the spruce bark beetle on the community and future implications. Cooperative Extension will continue to be involved with bark beetle issues on the Kenai Peninsula. During September I coordinated the week visit of Dr. Ron Mahoney from the University of Idaho regarding a review of hardwood utilization. During November I developed three workshops on sawmilling, kiln drying, and international marketing that were held in Soldotna, Anchorage, and Fairbanks. On December 3 and 4, we convened the Forest Products Conference held in Fairbanks entitled "How Can the University of Alaska Assist Alaska's Forest Products Industry?"

Extractions: Contents Chinese Cabbage Bok Choy Chinese Mustard Flowering Cabbage ... Chinese Broccoli SPECIALTY CROPS: Chinese Cabbage and Related Oriental Crops COMMERCIAL VEGETABLE PRODUCTION Prepared by William Terry Kelley, Extension Horticulturist - Vegetable Crops Chinese Cabbage Chinese cabbage is a member of the Cruciferae family, which also includes cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower and mustard. In fact, Chinese cabbage is more closely related to mustard than to cabbage. Though seemingly new to Southern diets, Chinese cabbage has been cultivated in North America for more than a century, and in China for almost 1,500 years. Today, it is grown for sale primarily in California, New Jersey, Hawaii and Florida. The flavor of Chinese cabbage is somewhat milder than cabbage when cooked or eaten raw and has been traditionally used in soups, egg rolls, stir-fry and for pickling. It can adequately substitute for cabbage in many Western dishes. Chinese cabbage is an annual that grows 10 to 20 inches tall. Two types are available: a leafy type (

Extractions: North Carolina State University Pumpkins were used by American Indians long before Columbus visited our shores, and pumpkins readily found their way to the first Thanksgiving table. Pumpkins were used by early settlers much as we use them today for food and decoration. Washington Irving wrote about the pumpkin in "Legend of Sleepy Hollow." The term "pumpkin" has been the subject of many scholarly discussions. The scientific name of most pumpkins is Cucurbita pepo (Jack-o- lantern types). Many of the large fruited types such as Boston Marrow and Mammoth are Cucurbita maxima , while the buff-colored sugar-pie or Dickinson variety, Cucurbita moschata , are excellent for pies or processing. All pumpkins have hard shells when mature. Soils Pumpkins are well-adapted to most North Carolina soils. The soil should be well-drained. The optimum pH is 6.0 to 6.5. Take a soil test to determine pH and fertilizer requirements. Do not use fields that have had other vine crops (melons, cucumbers, etc.) during the past 2 years.

Extractions: Table 8. Garden Location The garden should have a southern exposure (south side of your home) or be in an open field if at all possible. There should be a minimum of six hours of direct sunlight at the chosen location. A well-drained site even after a heavy rain is ideal. Poor drainage may be improved by regrading, digging ditches, installing a tile drain field, or adding organic matter. Nearby trees and shrubs may have extensive root systems that may interfere with water and nutrient uptake of plants at your site. Locate the site to minimize or avoid this problem. As a last resort, consider removal of trees and shrubs that may interfere with production. Land with a slope of 1.5 percent or greater (18-inch elevation change in 100 feet) should be avoided or terraced to prevent runoff and soil erosion. Contour planting, which is setting the rows to follow the contour of the land, can also help with runoff problems.
