1999 STEEP III Progress ReportRESEARCH TITLE: Evaluation of varieties under direct and conventional seeding in Washington, Idaho, and Oregon. INVESTIGATORS: Steve Dofing,
Stephen Guy, Bill Payne, Kevin McPhee, Dave Huggins. INTERIM REPORT: April 1999 to November
1999. OBJECTIVES:
KEY WORDS: direct seeding, pea, no-tillage STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Extensive information is available from variety trials on the performance of pea varieties in conventional tillage systems. However, relatively little information on variety performance is available under direct seeding systems. Growers considering adopting direct seeding require information on variety performance under direct seeding conditions to select varieties for optimum performance. ZONE OF INTEREST: High and intermediate rainfall zones of the Pacific Northwest in which peas may be grown successfully. ABSTRACT OF RESEARCH FINDINGS: Although included in the FY99 cycle, this is a Supplemental STEEP III project that was approved in the Spring of 1999. Therefore, the first field season is scheduled to begin in the Spring of 2000, and no field results have been obtained. RESULTS AND INTERPRETATION: No results are available
at this time (see above). COOPERATION WITH OTHER SCIENTISTS CONDUCTION RELATED ACTIVITY: This project consists
of joint research conducted by scientists in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.
Considerable collaboration was required to develop the proposal and plan
the research that will be initiated in the spring of 2000. Bill Payne
has recently accepted another position outside of Oregon, and cooperation
with other Oregon State University scientist(s) will be sought. PUBLICATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS: None available at this time. |
