Extractions: This module is intended to serve as a source of basic information needed to implement an integrated pest management program for leafy spurge. Any pest management plan or activity must be formulated within the framework of the management zones where it will be implemented. Full consideration must be given to threatened and endangered species, natural and cultural resources, human health and safety, and the legal mandates of the individual parks. Recommendations in this module must be evaluated and applied in relation to these broader considerations. Leafy spurge ( Euphorbia esula L.), a member of the family Euphorbiaceae, is a herbaceous, deep-rooted perennial weed of disturbed lands. Pastures and fields left fallow for long periods, tree rows, waste areas, roadsides, and rangelands or open grasslands are all susceptible to infestation by leafy spurge. Leafy spurge commonly occurs along railroad rights-of-way, water courses, and gullies. It is sometimes found in cultivated lands where infested land has been broken for crop production. Leafy spurge rarely invades fields that have been under cultivation for several years, but long-lived roots can regenerate at any time. The single greatest direct impact of leafy spurge is the reduction of populations of native grasses and legumes and associated ecosystem changes caused by the superior competitive abilities (rapid growth and allelopathic properties) of this species (Steenhagen and Zimdahl 1979).

KEY DEPARTMENT NEWS The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA's) National Weather Service and Arkansas Department of Emergency Management to Sign Memorandum of Agreement. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA's) National Weather Service and Florida State and Federal Agencies Collaborate to Get Additional Data. The NWS, working in collaboration with the Florida Department of Transportation (DOT), NOAA's National Ocean Service (NOS) and Forecast System Laboratory (FSL), and Florida Weather Forecast Offices, is working to enhance weather analyses and forecasting through the use of Global Positioning System (GPS) sites throughout Florida. The Florida DOT plans to install 50 GPS sites around the state to improve its geophysical observation and mapping capability. Once installed, the GPS system will help provide atmospheric moisture content measurements that may be accessed at any time (currently upper air weather balloons capture those data only twice a day). This is an important asset in increasing efficiency and effectiveness of NWS forecasting capabilities. Since GPS signals are affected by atmospheric water vapor, the FSL has developed a technique to derive Integrated Precipitable Water estimates (moisture content from the Earth's surface to the top of the atmosphere) from the GPS data. A few GPS sites are currently operational in Florida and are already providing the NWS with high resolution real time IPW estimates. All 50 GPS sites are expected to be operational within the next two years. (Contact: Ron Trumbla, W/SR, 817-978-1111, ext. 140)

Why White Wheat With input from the North dakota Wheat Commission, NDSU is determining if new whitewheat varieties should be developed for a domestic Kansas State coop. ext. http://www.ndsu.nodak.edu/instruct/berzonsk/breeding/White Wheat.html
Extractions: What is white wheat? Why is white wheat a possible alternative to red wheat? The possible advantages of white wheat over red wheat are associated with end-use and not necessarily agronomic performance. Some millers point out that white bran permits them to obtain a higher flour extraction. With fewer phenolic compounds and tannins in the bran, white wheat also imparts a less bitter taste and a more favorable appearance to the final product. The U.S. stands to capture a greater share of the wheat export market, especially with respect to Asia, if white wheat production increases. In fact, a preference for white wheat products in Asia has contributed to a decline in the export of U.S. red wheat to this rapidly growing region of the world. What white wheat varieties will be developed for North Dakota, and how will they be released? Argent How should white wheat production be managed? When there is rain at harvest, white wheat has tended to be more susceptible to sprouting in the head compared to red wheat. Therefore, Argent and all white wheat varieties should be harvested as soon as possible to avoid excessive pre-harvest sprout damage. The NDSU breeding program is concentrating on developing varieties with a whiter seed coat and on incorporating pre-harvest sprout resistance into these varieties. The primary focus of additional NDSU white wheat research is to identify specific end-use products within existing markets and to determine the production practices needed to meet end-use quality requirements.

Extractions: Adults - Emerge the next summer and feed on foliage and pollen. Do not reinfest stored products. Red and Gray Sunflower Weevil (Smicronyx fulus and S. Sordiadus). The red sunflower seed weevil adults are reddish-brown, and the gray sunflower seed weevil are slightly larger and gray in color. The larvae of both species are small, cream colored, legless, and C-shaped in appearance. Seed weevil adults emerge in mid-summer and feed on sunflower buds. As the sunflower matures, the adults feed on pollen, and, as the seeds mature, eggs are deposited within the seed. After developing in the seed, the larvae drop to the ground, overwintering in the soil. The insect is univoltine in North Dakota, cannot survive in storage, and is not a stored-product pest (Figure 25). (Slide courtesy of D. K. McBride, and top caption courtesy North Dakota Coop. Ext.

CoOp Observer Tasks plastic or metal raingauge to a full coop station with call Mark Ewens at 701772-0720ext 327 for the National Weather Services Eastern North dakota Office in http://www.crh.noaa.gov/fgf/coop/cpm.htm
Extractions: The National Weather Service (NWS) has been tasked with the issuance of severe weather watches and warnings designed to protect life and property. To this end, the collection of timely and accurate surface weather data is vital. In addition to the protection of life and property, the Department of Commerces' National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (of which the NWS is a part) has been given the job of maintaining a database of climatic weather information. This too is used by the NWS in preparing medium and long range forecasts. These two jobs have the Cooperative Observer Program - Co-Op Program in short- in common. The Co-Op Program is the backbone of the United States Climatological database. Co-Op observers frequently act as both as severe storm spotters, phoning in reports of hazardous weather in the winter and summer. What is the job of a Co-Op observer? Being an NWS Co-Operative observer can be a demanding job. To provide accurate and complete weather data, observations are required seven days a week 365 days a year. This does not mean that someone has to be monitoring the "weather" all the time; instruments are provided to monitor temperature and precipitation. Yet someone should be available to record the daily maximum and minimum temperature, the precipitation, and snowfall. This generally is done around 7a.m., but observation times can be shifted to fit the observers schedule.
