Extractions: Contents Lima Beans COMMERCIAL VEGETABLE PRODUCTION Prepared by Darbie M. Granberry, William Terry Kelley and George Boyhan, Extension Horticulturist In Georgia, the lima (butter) bean can be grown in both fall and spring. As a warm-season crop, limas are commercially produced in Georgia for fresh markets, processing and pick-your-own operations. Varieties Variety selection should be based on several criteria. Although yield is a significant factor, it should not be the only criteria used for variety selection. Market acceptability, local environmental adaptability, disease resistance and quality are all equally important. Recommended varieties for Georgia are listed on the back. Several types of lima beans, including bush and pole varieties, can be grown successfully in Georgia. White, cream, green and buff-colored seed types can all be produced here as well. Lima beans grown for processing are usually of the bush type. Because pole limas require additional time and labor for staking, they usually are used in fresh-market and pick-your-own situations. Always buy seeds from a reputable source. Few new varieties of lima beans are being produced; therefore, most varieties are available from a number of different companies. Seed purity has been a concern in recent years. Always ensure that the seed you buy is true to variety and is within the required percentage for seed purity.

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 (

Stable Fly USDA, Agricultural Research service, Agricultural Information Bulletin 673 4. UF CoopExt. the biology and recommended control of florida s medically important http://pherec.org/entguides/EntGuide4.html
Extractions: GENERAL The stable fly (sometimes referred to as the dog fly in northwest Florida) is a blood-sucking fly that can be a nuisance to man, pets and livestock. This fly becomes a pest of humans only when its primary animal hosts are absent. THE PROBLEM BIOLOGY Stable fly adults look like house flies in size and color (Fig. 1A) except that stable flies have a long piercing mouthpart used for penetrating the skin to obtain blood, whereas, house flies do not (Figs. 1B and 1C). Both sexes of this fly usually feed twice daily on blood. The life cycle of the stable fly is shown in Figure 2. The female lays about 500-600 small (about 1/16 inch), whitish, sausage-shaped eggs in her lifetime. Eggs hatch 2-5 days into larvae (also known as maggots) which feed and mature in 14-26 days. Stable fly maggots look similar to house fly maggots and develop in decaying silage, hay or straw mixed with manure, green chop (top portions of young forage used for food), spilled feed along feed troughs, as well as eroded walls of trench silos where silage is stockpiled on animal facilities. Under ideal conditions, more than 3,000 maggots/sq. ft. have been found on W. Florida dairy farms in mid-January and 5 times that in summer. Mature maggots (about 3/8 inch long) will move to drier areas in order to pupate. The puparium is a bright red to chestnut brown colored barrel-looking structure (about 1/4 inch long) from which the adults will eventually emerge in 6-26 days.
