Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biennial Report of the Oregon State Board of Horticulture, 1909 Gaston, oregon, January 1, 1909. To the Honorable, the Legislative Assembly of Oregon: Gentlemen: In conformity with the statute which directs the. Board of Horticulture to report biennially to you, 1 herewith submit my report of the work of the Board for the years 1907 and 1908. You are, of course, familiar in a general way with the object of the Board and with the work that has been accomplished. And 1 need refer to that only brieﬂy, but I hope in a way that will show its importance As originally organized, the district commissioners, five in number were the active working force, the president being merely a figure head who presided at meetings. Later the president was made an active working member and in 1905 the present organization was perfected; the work of the Board being supplemented by a. Force of county inspectors.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sixteenth Biennial Report of the Board of Horticulture to the Thirty-First Legislative Assembly: Regular Session of the State of Oregon, 1921 As President of the Oregon State Board of Horticulture and Quarantine Officer, I have to report that the Western Plant Quarantine Board was organized at Riverside, California, in May, 1919, with a membership composed of the plant quarantine officers of the eleven Western states, the territory of Hawaii, the province of British Columbia, and the Northern district of Lower California. The purpose of the organization is to protect the Western states, provinces and territories as a whole against the introduction of plant pests and diseases not established West of the Rocky Mountains by promoting uniformity of action in the promulgation and enforcement of plant quarantine regulations and to protect each other through close association enabling a better understanding of the quarantine problems in each state. The officers of the Board are: Mr. G. H. Hecke, Director of Agriculture of California, Chairman; Mr. Chas. A. Park, President of State Board of Horticulture of Oregon, vice-chairman; and Mr. Harold R. Hagen, State Inspector of Crops and Pest Commission of Utah, Secretary. All of whom were elected for a period of two years. The first annual meeting of the Board was held at Salt Lake City, Utah, in May, 1920, with all of the members present except the territory of Hawaii. This meeting was marked by much enthusiasm and harmony. The personal acquaintance and touch made possible by these meetings is doing much to solve our problems efficiently and harmoniously.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eighth Biennial Report of the Board of Horticulture of the State of Oregon to the Twenty-Third Legislative Assembly (Regular Session), 1905 It is often difficult to convince the home fruitgrower that time and money are wisely spent buying and using good spray pumps. He argues that he gets what fruit he wants, gives to any of his neighbors that wants it, and then much rots on the ground. He asks no more, and apparently wishes to be let alone. Well, our work is largely one of education with the grower. We can only be just to all. There are some pests which are a menace to the surrounding orchards that must be severely dealt with. The biennial reports have proved a valuable aid to me in my work. It is surprising how many write to me requesting One, or call at my home to obtain one.

Said board shall employ from without their number a secretary, who shall exercise the powers and dis charge the duties conferred upon him by this act and whose compensation shall not exceed per month, to be paid in the same manner as other state officers. Said board shall also elect from their own number a treasurer, who shall give a bond to the Governor of the State of Oregon in the sum of conditioned upon the faithful discharge of his duties.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eleventh Biennial Report of the Board of Horticulture to the Twenty-Sixth Legislative Assembly Regular Session of the State of Oregon, 1911 I trust that we can today formulate some plan whereby our inspectors can make some accurate reports of conditions as they exist in their respective counties. The tenth biennial report of the board is just now coming from the press; I am very sorry that it has been so long delayed, as it should have been printed earlier. In spite of our best efforts it seemed impossible to get the material ready for the State Printer soon enough for him to get it printed before the legislature met, hence we had to wait until that work was out Of the way. I do not know as there was any one to blame, and the only remedy I see is for us to be a little earlier next time and then demand precedence. In preparing this report the aim has been to condense mat ters a' great deal in comparison with former reports; to cut out all filling and all matter not directly applicable to our own conditions. Although far short of What I had hoped to have it, I trust that it will be found Of some benefit to our growers. We have a generous allowance of them this time, having been granted a 50 per cent increase in the number printed. There is need for extreme vigilance in the matter Of the inspection of incoming nursery stocks, seedlings as well as other stock. There is such an amount of planting now being done in the 'state that our local supplies Of trees are totally inadequate and a vast amount of importing is now being done. As there are no regions where trees are now grown in any quantity that are free from pests, we are in grave danger from these importations. I feel that a word should be said here in appreciation of the careful work done by Inspector E. G. Armstrong of Marion County in detecting the presence of the justly dreaded brown-tail moth in a shipment of nursery stock coming from France. He had never seen them before but recognized them from the cuts and descriptions that he had been studying. The alarm was immediately sounded and other shipments from the same source were traced and thoroughly examined, with the result that Oregon has been spared this scourge for the time at least.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seventh Biennial Report of the State Board of Horticulture: Of the State of California, for 1899-1900 Another and a very important work of the Board has parasites. Been the importation and distribution of parasitic and predaceous insects. Our terrible experience with the cottony cushion scale, which so nearly killed out the orange industry oi. The State,1ed to the study of predaceous insects and the introduction of the Vedalia cardinalis, the wonderful work of which has become known the world over. Since then, it has been the effort of this Board to discover and introduce new parasitic and predaceous insects, to reestablish the natural checks, and to stop as soon as possible the costly and disagreeable system of fumigating and spraying. As stated above, all our most destructive insects are introduced species which in their native lands are kept in check by their natural enemies. It is estimated that the annual damage to agricultural and horticultural interests of the country from the attacks of injurious insects amounts to and it is safe to say that at a low estimate at least one half of this damage is done by imported insects.

This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How we produce and consume food has a bigger impact on Americans' well-being than any other human activity. The food industry is the largest sector of our economy; food touches everything from our health to the environment, climate change, economic inequality, and the federal budget. From the earliest developments of agriculture, a major goal has been to attain sufficient foods that provide the energy and the nutrients needed for a healthy, active life. Over time, food production, processing, marketing, and consumption have evolved and become highly complex. The challenges of improving the food system in the 21st century will require systemic approaches that take full account of social, economic, ecological, and evolutionary factors. Policy or business interventions involving a segment of the food system often have consequences beyond the original issue the intervention was meant to address. A Framework for Assessing Effects of the Food System develops an analytical framework for assessing effects associated with the ways in which food is grown, processed, distributed, marketed, retailed, and consumed in the United States. The framework will allow users to recognize effects across the full food system, consider all domains and dimensions of effects, account for systems dynamics and complexities, and choose appropriate methods for analysis. This report provides example applications of the framework based on complex questions that are currently under debate: consumption of a healthy and safe diet, food security, animal welfare, and preserving the environment and its resources. A Framework for Assessing Effects of the Food System describes the U.S. food system and provides a brief history of its evolution into the current system. This report identifies some of the real and potential implications of the current system in terms of its health, environmental, and socioeconomic effects along with a sense for the complexities of the system, potential metrics, and some of the data needs that are required to assess the effects. The overview of the food system and the framework described in this report will be an essential resource for decision makers, researchers, and others to examine the possible impacts of alternative policies or agricultural or food processing practices.
