Economic factors influencing lower-leaf removal decisions

BLALOCK C.; BROWN A.B.; VANN M.C.; FISHER L.R.; FINCH C.E.

North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC USA

With a current global over-supply of flue-cured tobacco, tobacco producers in North Carolina have been encouraged to remove the lowermost leaves prior to harvest due to their low value in manufactured products. In field trials, the removal of 4 or 8...

Lower-leaf removal programs for flue-cured tobacco production in North Carolina

COGGINS T.; VANN M.C.; FISHER L.R.; WELLS R.; BROWN A.B.; FINCH C.E.

North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service - Davidson County, Lexington, NC USA

Sluggish demand for lower-stalk positions has prompted consideration for de-lugging programs in North Carolina. The agronomic impact of these leaf removal systems has not been fully reported. The objective of this research was to compare lower-leaf...

Effects of chloride application to nutrient assimilation and post-harvest measurements of flue-cured tobacco

VANN M.C.; FISHER L.R.; HARDY D.H.; PACE C.R.

North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC USA

Chloride (Cl-) application in excess of 34 kg/ha has generally been discouraged in the production of US flue-cured tobacco, due to the negative effects the nutrient can have on cured leaf yield, quality, and smoke sensory. However, fertilizer...

Organic suckercides - the unsuccessful search for an alternative to fatty alcohol

SHORT M.M.; SUCHOFF D.H.; VANN M.C.; FISHER L.R.

North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC USA

Organically derived fatty alcohol products are useful for the control of tobacco axillary buds (suckers) and are greatly needed by commercial tobacco farmers. Recently, USDA-National Organic Program approval of these products has been scrutinized,...

The effect of chloride application rate to the yield, quality, and chemistry of flue-cured tobacco

PACE C.R.; VANN M.C.; FISHER L.R.; SEAGROVES R.; HARDY D.H.

North Carolina State University, Raleigh NC USA

Applications of chloride (Cl-) to tobacco are generally discouraged due to the negative effects the anion can have to yield, quality, and smoke flavor/aroma. Despite the negative effects associated with Cl- application, unintentional applications of...

Organic transplant production: an evaluation of nitrogen fertility programs

VANN M.C.(1); FISHER L.R.(1); SEAGROVES R.(1); McGINNIS M.(2)

(1) North Carolina State University, Raleigh NC USA; (2) North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Raleigh NC USA

Organic tobacco production in North Carolina has increased in recent years. Despite increasing interest, little is known regarding the appropriate management of organic nitrogen sources in a seedling float system. Research was conducted to evaluate...

Evaluations of float water aeration in organic transplant production

FISHER L.R.(1); VANN M.C.(1); SEAGROVES R.(1); McGINNIS M.(2)

(1) North Carolina State University, Raleigh NC USA; (2) North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Raleigh NC USA

At present, the effects of float bed aeration in the production of organic tobacco seedlings are not known. Research was conducted to evaluate two organic nitrogen fertilizer programs and their effects to float water nutrient concentration and...

Evaluation of S-metolachlor for use in flue-cured tobacco production

CLAPP A.; VANN M.C.; FISHER L.R.; INMAN M.D.

North Carolina State University, Raleigh NC USA

With limited herbicide options and a growing concern to herbicide-resistant weeds, there is a strong need for additional chemical weed control materials in tobacco. S-metolachlor is labeled for use in a variety of agronomic and horticultural crops in...

Simulated sprayer tank contamination with Dicamba

INMAN M.D.; VANN M.C.; FISHER L.R.; GANNON T.W.

North Carolina State University, Raleigh NC USA

The deregulation of dicamba-tolerant cotton and soybean has increased the potential for dicamba exposure to tobacco through drift or tank contamination. Improper cleaning of sprayer equipment and off-target dicamba exposure can have detrimental...
