To increase productivity, it’s important that growers select sweet corn cultivars adapted to particular growing conditions. The goal of this report is to provide growers, crop advisers, county educators, Extension agents, and specialists with a broad evaluation of different commercial sweet corn hybrids and their performance in different locations of the Southeast U.S.

L’arachide est cultivée en Haïti depuis au moins 500 ans et remonte très probablement à la préhistoire. Selon Bartolomé de las Casas, un prêtre qui a accompagné Christophe Colomb lors de son expédition dans le Nouveau Monde et qui est accrédité avec la première description écrite de l’arachide, les Amérindiens indigènes ont cultivé l’arachide comme culture vivrière sur l’île d’Hispaniola avant l’arrivée des Européens. La production d’arachides en Haïti a continué jusqu’à nos jours. C’est une culture populaire parce qu’elle a un prix élevé sur le marché et qu’elle constitue une source de nourriture importante et agréable pour de nombreux Haïtiens. Les arachides séchées se trouvent toute l’année dans la plupart des marchés en plein air, et des produits à base d’arachides fabriqués localement, tels que le beurre d’arachide (y compris les formes sucrée, épicée et non aromatisée) sont couramment vendus dans les magasins et les supermarchés.

Haiti Peanut Research Report
This report summarizes the findings of field trials and basic data collected in Haiti under the Feed the Future Peanut & Mycotoxin Innovation Lab project from 2014-2017. The focus of the research was to improve peanut productivity through management options for foliar diseases, low soil fertility, and other yield-limiting agronomic factors.

Price and expenditure elasticities at the retail level between 1960 and 1993 were estimated for 11 fresh fruits and 10 fresh vegetables by employing a composite demand system approach and using annual data. Most fresh fruits and vegetables were found to respond significantly to changes in their own prices but insignificantly
to changes in expenditures. The study partially incorporated the interdependent demand relationships between fresh fruits (vegetables) and all other commodities, yet effectively avoided the problems of insufficient degrees of freedom.|

This publication provides Southeast-specific information on approved National Organic Program (NOP) disease and pest management options for blueberry production and addresses the issues most commonly encountered under the unique growing conditions of the Southeast U.S. This publication is not intended to provide all details on organic blueberry production, although it does include the production methods that reduce the impact of plant disease and pest issues. Emphasis in an organic system should be on cultural practices that reduce disease and pest pressure rather than pesticide applications. NOP-approved pesticides are usually less efficacious than conventional products. The pesticide label is the law and supersedes any information on pesticide use contained in this guide. Because environmental conditions and grower application methods vary widely, suggested use does not imply that performance of the pesticide will always conform to the pest control standards indicated by experimental data.
