Florida Crop/Pest Management Profiles: Peanuts
Mark Mossler and Michael J. Aerts
Production Facts
  • In 2006, Florida ranked 4 th nationally in peanut production with a crop value of approximately $52 million (1). The southeast is the largest peanut production region in the U.S., with Florida producing approximately 9 percent of the total national crop in 2006 (1). A total of 130,000 acres of peanut were planted during the 2006 production season in Florida. Of this acreage, approximately 120,000 acres were harvested, with an average yield of approximately 2,500 pounds per acre. The remaining 10,000 acres planted to peanuts were either harvested as green nuts, cut for hay, used as pasture, or abandoned. A total of 300 million pounds of peanuts were produced in 2006. Approximately 110,000 acres of peanut were planted in Florida in 2007 (1,2). Pest management makes up a large portion of the variable production costs for peanut. Estimated total crop production costs for 2006 were approximately $825 per acre, based on a 2,500 pound per acre yield in the southeastern United States, which equates to a unit cost of 33 cents per pound. About one-third of the total operating costs are invested in pesticides and spraying/scouting. This contrasts greatly with the 2006 price per unit which was a little over 17 cents a pound (1,3).

Dry Edible Beans Overview Dry edible beans, or field beans, come in a wide variety of market classes, including kidney bean, navy bean, pinto bean and black bean. These beans, although differing in seed size and coloring, are all just different types of a single species, Phaseolus vulgaris L. Originally domesticated in Central and South America over 7,000 years ago, dry beans moved their way northward through Mexico and spread across most of the continental U.S. These beans were commonly grown with corn and sometimes squash. Now, instead of the Native American practice of planting dry beans and squash right among corn plants, a different bean, soybean from China, has found its place with corn. The other key difference, of course, is that our modern corn and soybean crops go primarily to feed livestock, instead of being strictly for human food like the old corn and dry bean system used for thousands of years. Production Guide Plant Description Dry beans average about 22% protein in the seed. The amino acid profile of dry beans complements that of corn and other cereal grains, which is why the corn-bean diet was so standard through the Americas. Dry beans are sold in a variety of forms. Great Northerns, navy beans or mixes of beans, are the most likely to be sold as whole seeds in unprocessed form. Navy beans and kidney beans are both found in canned form, with kidney beans also common in chili mixes. Pinto beans and black beans are both made into refried beans, among other uses. Red beans are used for baked beans. Dry beans which do not meet quality standards for food use are typically sold for livestock feed. Like soybeans, dry beans have a trypsin inhibitor which prevents protein digestion in non-ruminant animals, including humans. Heat, applied during processing or home cooking, is needed to break down the trypsin inhibitor and make the beans fully digestible.

I. History:
Annual Canarygrass ( Phalaris canariensis
II. Uses:
The primary market for canarygrass is currently birdfeed, but other uses, including human food have been proposed. As a birdfood, the florets are sold and the birds dehull the florets before consumption. It is widely recognized as a superior canary-feed. Annual Canarygrass seed is similar to oat in mineral composition. The caryopsis is higher in ash, oil, and phosphorus but lower in fiber than concentrations common in corn, pea, or fieldbean. Canarygrass caryopses have higher concentrations of all eight essential amino acids than does wheat or corn, and are higher in sulfur-containing amino acids than pea or fieldbean. In spite of this encouraging nutritional profile, the value of canarygrass in human food has not been adequately explored.

Farming in Space You may download version here that is print-ready
A reader for the Acrobat file is available online Introduction This activity originates from NASA's interest in long-term, manned flight and potential colonization of the moon and planets. Plants can be an important part of bioregenerative life support systems in which food is produced and human waste recycled. To this end NASA is supporting the development of experimental equipment designed to grow plants on the Space Shuttle and the International Space Station. At the same time that engineers are designing equipment for plant growth, plant scientists are evaluating various species for their potential, and plant breeders are creating plant varieties that may be suitable in life support systems. An example of one of these systems in which Fast Plants and dwarf wheat will be evaluated experimentally on the space shuttle in the coming years is the Biomass Production System (BPS) designed by Orbitec (Madison, WI). The BPS is a complex piece of equipment with the capability of growing plants in four small chambers in which temperature, light, plant nutrient delivery, Carbon dioxide concentration and relative humidity can be monitored and controlled. Scientists Gary Stutte (Dynamac) and Robert Morrow (Orbitec) lead a team of other scientists and engineers in an experiment in which the Super Dwarf wheat developed by researcher Bruce Bugbee of Utah State University will be grown and evaluated in the BPS together with dwarf Fast Plants, AstroPlants.
