Extractions: Florida Energy Extension Service and Helen Helikson Whiffen Gasoline is the fuel for a typical car; food is the fuel for the human body. Nutrition experts say that a 25-50 year old female should consume 1,800-2,600 kilocalories of fuel a day ( Table 1 ). A male in the same age category requires 32% more kilocalories a day. Two thousand kilocalories equals 8,000 Btu of energy; a Btu is approximately equal to the energy produced by a burning match. There are 440 edible Btu of energy in a single serving of my breakfast cereal, but it took a lot more energy than that to grow and harvest and process and box and transport those whole oats, corn kernels, soy beans and almonds. It takes energy to make the food that gives us energy. The energy that Americans get from the food they eat is roughly 13% of the energy used to grow, process, transport, sell and prepare it (Pierotti, et al., 1977). The photosynthetic surface of an acre of oats converts about 1% of the 24 billion Btu of annual sun energy into plant matter. In addition, the Florida farmer uses 10 million Btu of energy in the form of diesel fuel for equipment, fertilizer, pesticides, labor, etc. (Fluck et al., 1991) to produce an average of 40 bushels of oats per acre per year. These oats are transported to a processing plant where they are transformed into your breakfast cereal. Overall, 2,500 Btu of energy are invested into a one-half cup serving of dry oatmeal (

Extractions: Polygonum cuspidatum NATIVE RANGE: Eastern Asia DESCRIPTION: Japanese knotweed, a member of the buckwheat family (Polygonaceae), is an upright, shrublike, herbaceous perennial that can grow to over 10 feet in height. As with all members of this family, the base of the stem above each joint is surrounded by a membranous sheath. Stems of Japanese knotweed are smooth, stout and swollen at joints where the leaf meets the stem. Although leaf size may vary, they are normally about 6 inches long by 3 to 4 inches wide, broadly oval to somewhat triangular and pointed at the tip. The minute greenish-white flowers occur in attractive, branched sprays in summer and are followed soon after by small winged fruits. Seeds are triangular, shiny, and very small, about 1/10 inch long. Japanese knotweed is designated a noxious weed in the State of Washington. ECOLOGICAL THREAT: Japanese knotweed spreads quickly to form dense thickets that exclude native vegetation and greatly alter natural ecosystems. It poses a significant threat to riparian areas, where it can survive severe floods and is able to rapidly colonize scoured shores and islands. Once established, populations are extremely persistent. DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES: Current distribution of Japanese knotweed includes 36 states in the lower 48 from Maine to Wisconsin south to Louisiana, and scattered midwest and western states. It is not currently known to occur in Hawaii. Click
