Extractions: Site construction, forage evaluation, riparian, transitional zone and upland bio-assessment, water quality analysis, cattle performance and behavior, site mapping, economic analyses, and two field days have been completed. The treatments consisted of grazing with alternative water and supplementation (trace mineral salt) sources, grazing with no alternative water or supplementation and no grazing. Each treatment was replicated three times for a total of nine pastures that provided visual across-fence comparisons. The study was replicated over two years. The project was designed to evaluate the economic impacts of developing off-stream water on ranches in the Pacific Northwest. The ACE grant (a portion of the project was funded through SARE/aCE) and matching state dollars provided funding for the first year. State funds and contributions from the Blue Mountains Natural Resources Institute were used to complete the second year.

NEW CROP MONOGRAPHS 1980-1995 The United States government has long recognized the importance of agriculture in keeping people well-fed, well-clothed, and well-housed, as well as acknowledging the role of science in helping to achieve and sustain those conditions through exploration and research. In the pursuit of new crops, the importance of bibliographic information in the success of such exploration and research cannot be over-emphasized. Since 1862, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), through the National Agricultural Library (NAL), has collected, compiled, and disseminated information relevant to that mission. The National Agricultural Library (NAL), part of the USDA's Agricultural Research Service (ARS), is the largest agricultural library in the world. NAL has 10 subject specific information centers that provide customized services to the agricultural community and others. All of the Centers can be accessed electronically through the NAL gopher and the NAL homepage (see addresses below). The Centers include: Agricultural Trade and Marketing, Alternative Farming Systems, Animal Welfare, Aquaculture, Biotechnology, Food and Nutrition, Plant Genome Database. Rural Technology Transfer, and Water Quality.

Extractions: Harris, Richard North Coast Forest Echoes, UC Cooperative Extension, Humboldt County 2(6):1-3. 1990 Editor's note: This article written by UC Forest Advisor Richard Harris introduces North Coast foresters to the concept of "new forestry" and highlights some of the environmental concerns and management issues facing land owners and the timber industry in the Pacific Northwest (reprinted with author's permission.) "The term 'new forestry' was probably coined by Dr. Jerry Franklin, Chief Ecologist for the Forest Service and professor of ecosystem science at University of Washington. Dr. Franklin and his research associates at Oregon State University, Forest Service Experiment Station in Corvallis and Washington have authored hundreds of papers concerning the ecology of Pacific Northwest Douglas-fir/western hemlock/sitka spruce forests. The concepts of new forestry spring both from that ecological knowledge as well as from what Franklin refers to as a 'kinder and gentler' approach to management. "Minimum fragmentation is a radical departure from the dispersed harvest unit approach currently used on federal lands and mandated by the California Forest Practice Regulations on private lands. There have been no field studies comparing it to conventional harvesting. Theoretically, the approach would benefit wildlife requiring large unbroken habitat patches. Concern has been expressed about potential effects on aesthetics and watershed values. Obviously, the concern would only pertain to potentially enlarged harvest areas and not to the larger patches of preserved habitat.

Extractions: NAPIAP is a program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) created to provide the most objective and accurate data available for defining and evaluating benefits and risks of selected pesticides having critical agricultural and forestry uses. These data are used by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA ) in making regulatory decisions about those pesticides. NAPIAP is a cooperative effort between USDA, at the national level, with land grant universities (such as the University of Maine) and state departments of agriculture at the state level. The Cooperative Extension Pest Management Office serves as the University of Maine's connection to NAPIAP. Respond to survey requests from the national NAPIAP program about the use, benefits and hazards of specific agricultural and forestry pesticides. These surveys often also request information on the use, benefits, hazards and consequences of alternatives to the pesticide under review. When EPA is making a decision about continuing, altering, or canceling the registration of a pesticide, the NAPIAP surveys provide "real-world" information to the EPA on how the material is used, why it is used, and its role in pest management. In meeting these responsibilities, Maine has responded to over 100 survey requests since 1988. The complexity and depth of individual surveys varies. Some are relatively simple requests for information about the use of one chemical on one commodity. At the other end of the spectrum are surveys that ask for information on all pesticides of a certain type (e.g. fungicides) on all commodities in Maine, including application rates and frequency for each product on each commodity. Some surveys can be answered with one or two phone calls to knowledgeable persons, other surveys take weeks or months of work to gather the needed information. Most survey requests fall in the middle of the range.
