SERVICE John G. Richardson Robeson County Exteni Chsinnan In the January 1984 issue of tgrichemkal Age there was a 'ivid picture and explanation >f a rather extensive research >roject that was conducted in Wisconsin on organic produc ion of vegetables. The study rompared four crops-sweet ?orn. cabbage, peppers, and omatoes-grown under or ganic conditions and the same crops grown under modern nsect control methods. All of he plots were machine culti ?ated. hand weeded, or hoed or weed control. The only lifference between the test ilots was the organic plots eceived no insect control reatments, while the other dots under normal conditions vere treated with insecti cides. The results showed that vithout the use of the insecti ?ides. all of the vegetables except the tomatoes were lamaged significantly. The iweetc in the-" n ? plots fforr ?" nfilled nsect .ig - to 3 lercetit d ge v the pro ected car Cabbage yields were also lrastically reduced on un reated heads. The average head weight dropped from 3.5 pounds in the insect controll ed plots to 1.7 pounds in the organic plots, but only 0.78 pounds of each cabbage head in the organic plots was usable compared to 3.36 pounds per head of treated cabbage. Even though these figures are fairly dramatic, green peppers even showed more dramatic decline in yield. Even though plant size and foliage of treated and un treated peppers were nearly identical, most of the un treated plants failed to pro duce any peppers at all. The yield for each 10 plants dropped from 23 ounces on the regular plots to 1.5 ounces on the organic plots. Tomatoes fared well in the study; largely because Wis consin tomatoes are usually not subject to many insect problems, since most tomato losses in that area are attri butable to fungus disease. I have shared this infor mation to make a point about agricultural chemicals. It is a generally accepted attitude that our food supply could be drastically reduced if chemi cals were not available in agriculture. Over the years insecticides that have been shown to persist in the en vironment have summarily I been banned, while other insecticides which are very [effective yet break down rapidly are now the order of the day in agriculture. Naturally, regardless of the use that is made of farm chemicals, it is imperative for all users to know the exact rates and other characteristics of a particular chemical. This information is available in the 1984 North Carolina Agri cultural Chemical* Manual, and this agricultural chem icals manual may be pur chased for $7.50 a copy at the County Extension Office. The manual is a 285-page booklet that includes information on safety, application, specimen identification, insect control, disease control, fruit disease and insect control, chemical weed control, plant growth regulators, .fertilizer use, an imal control, and other infor mation about poison control centers in North Carolina. Even though we normally distribute about 50 copies of the agricultural chemicals manual each year. I believe that with the increasing cost of farm chemicals and the numerous combinations that are now available, that it would be wise for anyone who ?uses agricultural chemicals to make the $7.50 investment in the I964^&ricultural chemi cals manual.
