Extractions: Florida Energy Extension Service and Helen Helikson Whiffen Gasoline is the fuel for a typical car; food is the fuel for the human body. Nutrition experts say that a 25-50 year old female should consume 1,800-2,600 kilocalories of fuel a day ( Table 1 ). A male in the same age category requires 32% more kilocalories a day. Two thousand kilocalories equals 8,000 Btu of energy; a Btu is approximately equal to the energy produced by a burning match. There are 440 edible Btu of energy in a single serving of my breakfast cereal, but it took a lot more energy than that to grow and harvest and process and box and transport those whole oats, corn kernels, soy beans and almonds. It takes energy to make the food that gives us energy. The energy that Americans get from the food they eat is roughly 13% of the energy used to grow, process, transport, sell and prepare it (Pierotti, et al., 1977). The photosynthetic surface of an acre of oats converts about 1% of the 24 billion Btu of annual sun energy into plant matter. In addition, the Florida farmer uses 10 million Btu of energy in the form of diesel fuel for equipment, fertilizer, pesticides, labor, etc. (Fluck et al., 1991) to produce an average of 40 bushels of oats per acre per year. These oats are transported to a processing plant where they are transformed into your breakfast cereal. Overall, 2,500 Btu of energy are invested into a one-half cup serving of dry oatmeal (

This is your source for practical, research-based information concerning subjects related to Agriculture for your home and your garden. CREOLE TOMATOES-PART ONE Scientific Classification of Tomatoes and Historical Prospective: Tomato, Lycopersicon esculentum To complicate matters, there is a specific variety of tomatoes named "creole". It was introduced in 1969 by the LSU Agricultural Experiment Station. Almost any variety of tomatoes grown in the region is considered a creole tomato. Economic Importance: According to the 1996 Louisiana Summary of Agriculture and Natural Resources prepared by the Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service, the Southeast Region of Louisiana accounted for 298 acres of the total 395 acres or 75% of the field tomatoes harvested in Louisiana during 1996. By our definition of "creole tomatoes," the tomatoes grown in that region of the state are considered creole tomatoes. The gross farm value of the 1996 creole tomato crop in Louisiana was $3,020,130. This accounted for 64% of the value of the field tomatoes harvested in Louisiana or about 7% of the total value of all vegetables produced in the state.

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.

For the list in SIC-Code order, click here On August 3, 2001, the U.S. Labor Department and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration released a list of nearly 14,000 employers in the U.S. with excessively high injury rates. There are 825 New York State employers on the list, 5.9 percent of the total. Each of the listed employers had a lost-workday-injury-and-illness (LWDII) rate of at least eight per hundred workers, compared to a national average LWDII of three. The data is from 1999, the most recent available. All those New York State employers are listed below, in zip-code order. At the same time OSHA released the names of the employers, it sent a letter to each of them explaining that "employees in your business are being injured at a higher rate than in most other businesses in the country," and stating: "OSHA recognizes that an elevated LWDII rate does not necessarily indicate a lack of interest in safety and health on the part of your business. Whatever the cause, however, a high rate is costly to your company in both personal and financial terms."
