DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Alfalfa: Growing for Seed and Hay According to the accompanying map, which was compiled from data secured from the census of 1899, the general distribution of the large alfalfa growing sections is indicated. Each dot represents one thousand acres in the county where the dot is located. For this reason, only the large alfalfa producing sections are dotted, as counties having less than one thousand acres are not marked. Fig. 1. - Map of the United States, showing the distribution of alfalfa in 1899. (westgate - Farmers' Bul. 339. U. S. Dept. Agriculture.) In the irrigated sections of the West, the production of alfalfa has greatly increased, especially where new areas have been thrown Open to-irrigation. The extension of alfalfa in the eastern half of the country has been so great that there is probably three times as much alfalfa being grown as there was ten years ago. Its rapid extension in the Great Plains region is indicated by the fact that in Kansas the assessors' reports in 1891, when alfalfa was first listed separately, showed acres, while in 1907 there were acres reported. Advance reports for the Fall of 1909 indicate ap proximately acres in Kansas for the year 1909. In the arid regions of the western half of the country, on the areas which have been brought under cultivation in the last ten years, alfalfa has been extensively planted._ In the eastern half of the country the limestone sections ofier the best prospects for the successful production of alfalfa. The limestone regions around Lake Champlain, and in Central New York are producing successful results. The limestone valleys of Maryland and Virginia, and the black prairie soils of Alabama and Mississippi are also proving adapted to alfalfa and offer good possibilities for farmers who are acquainted with the production of alfalfa in the West. The Eastern States call for a large amount of alfalfa seed from the West, and the chances of success with alfalfa in the East increase greatly as the special requirements for its production are understood and provided for.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe proceeding of tropical agriculture is a proceeding of papers presented at the International Conference on Tropical Agriculture. Sustainability of agriculture production system is an important issue in the world, which includes all aspects of sustainable criteria, such as technical, socio-economic, and ecological aspects. This book covers sustainable tropical agriculture, sustainable tropical fisheries, sustainable tropical animal production, sustainable tropical forestry, tropical animal health, and Innovative and Emerging Food Technology and Management. The most common, challenging issues in plant, animal and fisheries production in the tropics are climate change, inefficiency production system, low technological innovation, decreasing environment quality, and the outbreak risk of pest and diseases. These issues are closely linked to the socio-economic condition of farmers as small-scale farms are dominant in this area. In addition, post-harvest technology is crucial to maintaining the high quality of products after on farm production. This volume provides the recent research and development on tropical agriculture production systems for plant, terrestrial animal and aquatic animal to establish sustainable agriculture production in the tropics.
