Extractions: North Central Risk Management Initiative Background The Federal Agricultural Improvement and Reform Act of 1996 mandated the Secretary of Agriculture to initiate an educational program "...in management of financial risks inherent in the production and marketing of agricultural commodities." The Secretary directed the Risk Management Agency (RMA) to facilitate the risk management education ( RME ) program. A staff member in each of the 10 Regional Service Offices (RSOs) of the RMA was designated as the RME coordinator to facilitate educational programs in the states in their service region. RMA has also combined its resources with those of the Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service (CSREES) of USDA, the Land Grant University system and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. The country was divided into 5 extension regions with an extension coordinator for each region. These regions are aligned with the RSO regions. The North Central Region includes a total of 11 states. These are: Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, and Illinois serviced by the Springfield RSO; Minnesota, Wisconsin and Iowa services by the St. Paul RSO; and, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado serviced by the Topeka RSO. Current Activities North Central Risk Management Computer Software Workshop, Lincoln, Nebraska, May 20-21, 1998. The purpose is to provide hands on training on a number of software packages that are currently available or are under development. Participation is limited to four representatives from each of the 11 states in the region. The participants will include extension staff and private sector representatives.

Extractions: New Alchemy Quarterly, No. 39 Cover crops are grown not to produce food or fiber, but to conserve, maintain and enrich the soil, and to perform other functions in the agricultural ecosystem. Growing cover crops during seasons in which the land would otherwise be idle protects the soil from water and wind erosion, reduces the loss of nutrients through leaching and runoff, adds organic matter and suppresses weeds. Legumes such as clover support symbiotic bacteria on their roots which fix (convert) atmospheric nitrogen into a form that plants can use. Many cover crops can extract nutrients from insoluble minerals, making them available for plant growth. When cover crops are turned back into the soil (at which time they are often called "green manures"), their residues contribute to soil organic matter, and a substantial part of their nutrients become available to the next crop. Finally, some cover crops provide food (nectar) or habitat for beneficial insects. Because so many benefits can be derived from a relatively small input of materials (10 to 100 lb seeds per acre), cover crops have been called a cornerstone of many sustainable agricultural systems (Liebhardt et al. 1989) At the New Alchemy Institute, we have been studying cover crops for sustainable vegetable production for the past three years. The table on the following page is a synopsis of information on cover crops for temperate climates, derived from a review of literature and seed catalogues, a survey of farmers in the Northeast (Schonbeck 1988), and our own experience.

Extractions: Nebraska, Northeast Research and Extension Center-Haskell Ag Lab, Concord, NE 68728. Published in Agronomy Journal. 93:408-412 (2001). Soybean improvement through the incorporation of genetic resistance or tolerance is an accepted practice in soybean cultivar development for yield-limiting factors such as diseases (Athow, 1987) and nematodes (Riggs and Schmitt, 1987). A goal of plant breeders is to maintain the productivity of the parent line in the absence of the yield-limiting factor. Comparisons of near-isogenic lines with and without the tolerance or resistance genes are important to ascertain if
