    Extractions: North Carolina State University Growers often wait too long to begin irrigating, thinking, "It will rain tomorrow." This often results in severe stress for the portion of the field that dries out first or receives irrigation last. Another common problem is trying to stretch the acreage that can reasonably be covered by available equipment. Both of these practices result in part or all of the field being in water stress. It is best that a good job be done on some of the acreage rather than a "half-way job" being done on all the acreage. Drought stress can begin in as little as three days after a 1-inch rain or irrigation in such crops as tomatoes in soils like those in the Piedmont of North Carolina. Thus, frequent irrigation is necessary for maximum yield. Soil moisture requirements differ with the crop and stage of crop development. Soil moisture availability varies with the amount of water in the soil and the type of soil. Soil type is very important in planning for and using an irrigation system. Various vegetable crops are listed in Table 1 as to the critical stage and irrigation needs. Up to 1.5 inches of water is needed each week during hot periods to keep vegetable crops that have a plant spread 12 inches or more. This need decreases to .75 inches per week during cooler seasons.

84. Now, They Are Spraying Crops With MSG
    If you think it s wrong to spray MSG on fruit and vegetable crops, please registeryour concern by contacting Dr. Lynn Goldman at the EPA at the address or  
    http://aspartamekills.com/msgoncrops.html
    
    Extractions: GO TO PRESS RELEASE NOW, THEY ARE SPRAYING CROPS WITH MSG A product containing a substantial amount of processed free glutamic acid (MSG) has been approved for use as a "growth enhancer" spray for use on agricultural products. Approximately 30 per cent of the product is MSG. The action is summarized in the press release that follows. MSG is known to trigger migraine headache, tachycardia, arrhythmia, seizures, asthma, nausea and vomiting, hives, skin rash, anxiety attacks, depression and much, much more in people who have become sensitive to it. It causes gross obesity and learning disorders in laboratory animals that ingest it when young. You can read about what it is, what it does, and where it's hidden in food on our Web site: http://www.truthinlabeling.org . But now that spraying MSG ON agricultural products as they grow has been approved, ANY fresh food may have some residual MSG on it, and processed food made from fresh fruit or vegetables may have MSG in it, too. Baby food, largely free of MSG since the late 1970's, will now have MSG in it. Processed food will now have more MSG in it than it did before. And there may be MSG residue on every tomato, cucumber, strawberry, leaf of lettuce, or peanut that you eat, as well as on every other fresh fruit, grain or vegetable. We think you should be concerned. This is a new EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) approval, effective February 6, 1998. We are asking that the approval be rescinded. Being told by the EPA that it is OUR responsibility to demonstrate that residue from spraying MSG on produce while it's growing is a potential health hazard, and interpreting that to mean that the EPA will not look into the matter without extreme pressure, we have provided them more than sufficient material to demonstrate the MSG places humans at risk. We have also written to the producer, Auxein Corporation, informing them that their product is potentially toxic, and asking them to withdraw it from the market.

89. U.S. EPA: Methyl Bromide Alternatives: Metam Sodium
    a broad spectrum soil fumigant that can be used to control nematodes, weeds, andfungi affecting a variety of economically important fruit and vegetable crops.  
    http://www.epa.gov/spdpublc/mbr/casestudies/volume1/metams.html
    
    Extractions: Federal Procurement First discovered in 1950, metam sodium, also sold under the trade names Vapam, Busan, and Sectagon II, degrades rapidly to methylisothiocyanate, the product's primary bioactive agent (Budavari 1994). Used as part of an Integrated Pest Management system, metam sodium is a broad spectrum soil fumigant that can be used to control nematodes, weeds, and fungi affecting a variety of economically important fruit and vegetable crops. Overall, metam sodium is considered a cost effective, technically viable alternative to methyl bromide for controlling soil pests affecting high value fruit and vegetable crops in Florida and California. Cost-effective method to control tough annual weeds, reduce nematode populations, and control soil-borne pathogens prior to planting fruits and vegetables.

    http://www.urbanext.uiuc.edu/vegproblems/problems/d_anthracnose.html
    
    Extractions: Click here for more pictures. Anthracnose is caused by a fungus, Colletotrichum orbiculare that attacks cucumbers, and melons as well as tomatoes. The symptoms begin as yellow spots or water soaked areas on the leaves or fruits. The attacked areas enlarge rapidly, turn brown and form a ragged hole within the spot. The attacked fruits have brown water-soaked circular lesions, which turn black as the disease progress, and the fruit finally shrivels. The disease can attack fruit both in the field and in storage. The fungus overwinters in residues and seeds of attacked plants. Plant resistant varieties when possible; plant certified pathogen-free seeds; avoid working among the plants when plant foliage is still wet; control volunteer cucurbits; follow a regular spray program with fungicides recommended in your state and follow pre-harvest interval; and bury deep crop any residues after harvest. home search by vegetables search by pests or disease credits ...
