Abstract

Forage production studies following controlled burns on chaparral areas indicated that forage is usually most abundant in the first two years after burning.

Also in this issue:

Trucks in produce marketing: About 15% of California's interstate shipments of fresh fruits and vegetables are moved by truck

Pacific coast canned fruits: F.o.b. prices reflect average industry experience for the period June 1, 1953 through May 30, 1954

World-wide grape surplus: Analysis of price-depressing effects of California's exportable surpluses on the grape product markets

Rancid flavor in fresh milk: Activating effect of some pipeline milkers and farm tanks apparently major cause of rancidity

Poison gas tests on gophers: Gases and gas bombs much less effective and more costly than poison bait, contrary to common claims

Irrigation tests with oranges: Effects of various irrigation practices on growth and production of citrus trees subject of studies

Citrus grove rejuvenation study: Ten areas selected for stationwide research on problems of decline in production and fruit size

Reseeding controlled burns: Records of 45 controlled brush burns in woodland-grass areas indicate self-reseeding predominates

Off-flavor in canned olives: Tests show application of certain insecticides to olive trees will produce musty flavor in the fruit
