As a consequence of these actions and possibilities, producers of many horticultural crops are now desperate for management systems that include viable alternatives for weed control. Our proposed experiment with strawberries may serve as a model that has relevance to a number of other high value fruit and vegetable crops such as broccoli, cabbage, leeks, melons, tomatoes, and zucchini, to name a few. Our objective is to reduce herbicide use in strawberry production through two mechanisms. The first involves research and demonstration of combined biological, cultural, and mechanical weed control, which is itself an example of integrated weed management. The second involves the substitution of a renewable resource-based fumigant/ herbicide/mulch for weed management in strawberries, a crop directly consumed by the public.Item The Wool Mulch System of Producing Strawberries: A Manual for Commercial Growers in Minnesota(Department of Horticultural Science, 2008) Tepe, Emily S; Hoover, Emily E; Poppe, SteveThis manual was developed after ten years of research on a new system of producing strawberries using a combination of wool mulch and a canola cover crop/mulch. The wool mulch – a locally produced, biodegradable and renewable product – is used in the strawberry rows, and functions as a weed deterrent while also regulating soil temperature, retaining moisture and suppressing many diseases. The canola is used before planting as a weed suppressing cover crop. Later, canola is used between the rows of strawberries where it continues its role as weed suppressant. Only two herbicide applications are used in the system, both on the canola, which is a reduction from conventional methods.Item Introducing cold-hardy kiwifruit to Minnesota(Minnesota Department of Agriculture, 2010) Luby, James; Guthrie, Robert; Theship-Rosales, EricThe goal of this project is to introduce Minnesota growers to kiwifruit and provide them with information about the culture and management of growing this tasty and nutritious cold-hardy crop using two trellising approaches, pergola and T-bar, that prevent soil erosion, conserve soil moisture, and integrate natural biological measures. Articles in previous editions of the Greenbook described our activities in year one and year two of the project. This article provides the information about how to build a pergola system for kiwifruit or grapes.Item Grape IPM Guide for Minnesota Producers(2011) Hoover, Emily E.; Wold-Burkness, Suzanne; Hilton, Joy; Mollov, Dimitre; Burkness, Eric; Galvan, Tederson; Hemstad, Peter; Hutchinson, W.D.
