In This Issue:
Yellow starthistle control. Soil solarization. Natural pesticides from plants. Harvest of hope: The potential for alternative agriculture to reduce pesticide use. Vitamin and mineral contents of carrot and celeriac grown under mineral or organic fertilization. Understory cover crops in pecan orchards: Possible management systems. Cool-season cover crops relay intercropped with cantaloupe: Influence on a generalist predator Geocoris punctipes (Hemiptera: Lygaeidae). Predatory and parasitic wasps (Hymenoptera) feeding at flowers of sweet fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Miller var. dulce Battandier & Trabut, Apiaceae) and spearmint (Mentha spicata L., Lamiaceae) in Massachusetts. Causes and consequences of overfertilization in orchards.
