iPreparetl by the lTnlt d StmesjBepartment
of Agriculture )
Many important problems In grow-
ing and marketing [lecaus are confront-
ing the growers.
T'util recently the most experienced
growers of pecans have considered
the cowpen to he an excellent summer
cover crop for use In their orchards,
but, says the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture, it bus been found
that this crop Is u favorite host plant
or crop for the southern green plant-
ing or "stink bug" which attacks the
Immature nuts and by perforating the
•jfol'l shell with its proboscis, reaches
and injures the tender kernel. With
the subsequent growth nnd develop-
ment of the uuts there arise at the
points of perforation definite areas of
deadened tissue I11 the kernel, possess-
ing a bitter or acrid taste, and com-
monly designated as "kernel spot."
Large quantities of the finest nuts were
greatly reduced in consequence. A
substitute soil-Improving crop for
growing in pecan orchards is there-
fore needed. Among the promising
things are beggar weed, bush velvet
bean and soy bean. So far us Is known
the beggarweed Is not a host plant for
the bug and the bush velvet bean anil
the soy hean are not supposed to be
attacked by this Insect. Bush velvet
beans are Increasing In popularity as
a cover crop In this section and may
he the solution of the problem. As yet,
there Is little practical experience In
determining the suitability of these
cover crops In pecan orchards and
their efficiency In controlling the ".stink
hug." Orchardlsts wno use either hush
velvet beans or soy beans as cover
crops should carefully inspect their
crops at tlie end of the season to de-
termine whether the percentage of
nuts with kernel spot Is satisfactorily
reduced on the areas in which these
crops are grown In comparison with
the same variety where no cover crops
ire used. These are important prob-
lems on which the growers themselves
, ;,n assist In securing trustworthy in-
formation.
Plan to Destroy "Stink Bug."
It h;i< !H-en suggested that the "stink
hue" feeds only on seed pods. If this
is true, crops, such as the velvet bean,
which are late In maturing seed pods,
could be grown for a summer cover
crop and turned under or cut up with
• li.^k harrows In early October before
the pecan Is ready to harvest. In this
win the insect probably would be de-
stroyed and the ground left In
condition for the nut harvest. Growers
and experimenters are expecting to
obtain valuable Information on these
crops during the coniini: season
Another Important problem Is that
of unproductive orchards. Some of
these orchards were planted, on very
poor soil, and for the worst of these
the only apparent alternative Is thnt
of abandonment. Other orchards do
not produce well because the trees
were planted too close together, and
are now badly crowded. For these it
appears that the most effective rem-
edy would be that of removing The
alternate trees, pruning those remain-
ing, and of Improving the fertility of
the soil. For orchards composed of
seedling trees, or Inferior varieties,
top-working is the solution.
To Build Up Industry.
In large outlying districts within the
pecan range, yet beyond the limits of
successful culture of southern varie-
ties. the question is how to build up
the orcharding Industry, and how to
extend Its range. In regions to which
the species Is Indigenous the first ques-
tion is that of finding new varieties
suitable for planting. The native for-
est and field specimens should be ex-
amined for trees benrlng desirable nuts
In sufficient quantity to he profitable.
Scions frotn such trees should be used
for top-working the Inferior seedlings.
Small wild seedlings can be worked
over to desirable sorts by customary
nursery methods. Some common mis-
takes made in attempting to top-work
trees are: Using those thHt are too
old; cutting off branches thut are too
large; pruning too severely at the out-
set. thus attempting to do too much
in a single season; top-working trees
planted too close together, and top-
working trees standing In out-of-the-
way places where It will never be pos-
sible to give them good care.
The development of the nut-cracking
industry should help the pecan Into a
12 months of the year market, and give
employment to labor during otherwise
idle months.
The kernels of the pectin contain a
large percentage of oil which Is quite
as sensitive to temperature changes as
is butter. In order that the shelled
meats, as well ns the unshelled nuts,
may be kept In prime condition for the
longest possible period, it Is necessary
that the nuts be well dried before they
are packed or barreled for shipment,
and that the product be kept In a
and well-ventilated place during the |
winter months. As soon as warm
weather begins these products should
be placed In cold storage at a tem-
poral nre between HO nnd .'W degrees.
In 1 lie shelling of nuts there Is con-
siderable waste in the form of sheila
and broken meats. Growers and halt
dlers are trying to find uses for these
products, such as fertilizer, tanning
material and fuel.
