Research Reports

Body

The Carrington Research Extension Center conducts research and hosts educational programs to enhance the productivity, competitiveness, and diversity of agriculture in central North Dakota and beyond. Research activities at the CREC include scientists and support staff trained in implementing programs in Agronomy, Plant Pathology, Soil Science, Precision Agriculture and Animal Science. These program teams are able to address a broad scope of factors that impact North Dakota agriculture. The crop diversity of the state is addressed in all program areas and is further supported by the ability to conduct research under both dryland and irrigated conditions. Projects addressing organic crop production and a fruit and berry program broaden the constituency being served. The foundation seed program of the Center represents an important part of the overall NDSU Foundation Seed program. The CREC is the base of operation for four state Extension specialists. The research reports highlight specific research we are conducting.

Fusarium Head Blight (Scab) continues to be a persistent problem for small grains in the United States, particularly in regions with frequent rainfall and warm temperatures. In 2024, these conditions were especially conducive to scab…
Interseeding potential for thirteen species was evaluated as well as sweet clover as the legume check.
Yield response to nitrogen varies widely year to year even on the same field, mostly due to climatic factors such as rainfall, temperature, and length of season.
This study evaluates the performance of winter peas planted on four different dates over three years (2022–2024) to assess the impact of planting date and variety on winter survival, biomass production, and grain yield.
A demonstration was conducted in Wishek, North Dakota, to test the effects of supplemental N and inoculation on dry bean yield.
