	Cereal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cereal crops are mostly grasses cultivated for their edible seeds (actually a fruit called a caryopsis).
		Cereal grains are grown in greater quantities worldwide than any other type of crop and provides more food energy to the human race than any other crop.
		In developed countries, cereal crops are universally machine-harvested, typically using a combine harvester, which cuts, threshes, and winnows the grain during a single pass across the field.

	Cover Crop Database: Complete Crop Summary of Cereal Rye
		Minimal temperatures for germinating cereal rye seed have been variously given as 3 to 5, 0.6, and 1 to 2 degrees C; optimal range has been given as 25 to 31 and 13 to 18 degrees C. According to Stoskopf (1985), for vegetative growth to occur, a minimumum temperature of 4 degrees C is required.
		Cereal rye is a long-day plant and flowering is induced by 14 hours of daylight accompanied by temperatures of 5 to 10 degrees C (Stoskopf, 1985).
		Cereal rye is thought to be native to the mountains of southwestern Asia (Hitchcock, 1971; Munz, 1973) and to have been derived from Secale montanum Guss., a perennial grass native to that area (Hitchcock, 1971).

		Cereal residue levels were followed after tillage, pea planting, after pea harvest and planting of the following winter wheat crop.
		After harvest of the spring cereal crops, four tillage treatments, plow, chisel, paratill, and direct seed were applied in the fall.
		In all cases after the spring cereal crops, there was more groundcover in direct seeding than in paratill, which had more than the chisel and the plow treatment was lowest.

	Crop Rotations for Managing Plant Disease
		Sunflowers should not be rotated with potatoes, since both crops are suceptible to this disease and both may allow populations of the fungus to increase (Table 1).
		Susceptible crops should not be planted next to a field that was severely diseased the year before, as those disease organisms that produce spores can be airborne or splash dispersed from crop refuse and volunteer plants.
		If a susceptible crop must be planted next to a field that was severely diseased the year before, tillage should be used to bury the infected crop residue early, and all volunteers should be destroyed before planting.

	"Cereal Crop Residues and Plant Nutrients" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Leaves, stems and roots of cereal grains, left in the field after grain harvest, comprise from 50 to 75 percent of the total cereal boimass produced by a season's grain crop.
		This cereal stubble that is left to accumulate on the ground reduces soil erosion by buffering the impact of raindrops and reducing wind speed at the soil surface.
		Cereal straw accumulation and incorporation in the long term increases organic matter inputs into the soil, reduces the loss of plant nutrients and increases soil biological activity.

	Romania's cereal crop devastated by drought
		Largely as a result of this adverse weather, total cereal production in 2000 is estimated to have fallen to about 9.5-10 million tonnes, one of the smallest crops on record.
		Of the cereal crops, the worst affected was maize.
		Due to the small crop, cereal supplies are projected to be tight in the coming months, and significant imports could be required by mid-2001.

	Crop Profiles
		Supplemental fertilization rates vary with the cropping practices of the producer and the region in which the grain crop is being produced (Gavlak and Johnson, 1992).
		Irrigation: Interest in irrigation of cereal crops is increasing, especially in the Interior region where less than 1% of the crop receives supplemental water.
		Cereal feed grains are utilized by the Alaskan dairy industry, swine producers, beef producers, sheep and goat owners, and the recreational livestock owners as well as those families raising limited numbers of animals for their own consumption (subsistence).

		Cereal grains are produced in many areas of Alaska. The majority of the cereals however, are produced in two regions: the Matanuska-Susitna Valley of South Central Alaska (2) (61N 149W) and the Tanana Valley of Interior Alaska (1) (63N 145W).
		Cereal grain producers employ several IPM practices in combating the various local weeds, diseases, insects and “other” pests. Producers participate in University and Department of Environmental Conservation training programs on pesticide handling, application, storage and disposal.
		Cereal grain production is a very important component of the Alaskan Agricultural Industry. Cereal feed grains are utilized by the Alaskan dairy industry, swine producers, beef producers, sheep and goat owners, and the recreational livestock owners as well as those families raising limited numbers of animals for their own consumption (subsistence).

	SPECIAL ALERT No.304: North Africa - 5 April
		The 1999 cereal crop was also affected by drought, with output estimated at 8 million tonnes, which was 31 percent below the previous year's harvest.
		Initial indications are that this year's cereal harvest could be below the 1999 cereal crop estimated at 3.8 million tonnes, which was 42 percent below the previous year's level, also due to unfavourable weather.
		Cereal import requirements for the 2000/01 marketing year (July/June), mostly wheat, are likely to exceed the current year's estimated requirement of 6 million tonnes.

	Aphid vectors of Cereal Virus
		It is found lower down on the stems and leaves (except when the populations are large) on all types of cereals, and is also common in pastures from which it emigrates and infests newly sown autumn and spring cereal crops.
		Yield losses vary depending on which aphids are present in the crop, the type of cereals, the number of aphids per tiller and the percentage of BYDV in the crop.
		Sowing cereals after the main autumn aphid flights, i.e., in mid to late May onwards, reduces BYDV infection and the size of resident aphid populations during winter.

	Cereal and Forage Crops an Introduction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		A cereal crop is obtained from the grass family of plants in which the grain or seed is harvested to utilize as feed.
		These cereals are usually fed to livestock to increase the energy intake or to increase the energy density of a ration.
		A forage crop is a plant (except its roots) that is grown for feeding to livestock.

	Barley (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Barley is the fifth largest cultivated cereal crop in the world (530,000 km² or 132 million acres).
		The harvest process is difficult, and often attended with danger; even the threshing of it is not easily executed with machines, because the awn generally adheres to the grain, and renders separation from the straw a troublesome task.
		By good judges a quantity of seed is sown sufficient to ensure a full crop, without depending on its sending out offsets; indeed, where that is done few offsets are produced, the crop grows and ripens equally, and the grain is uniformly good.

	Halfbakery: Crop Circle Cereal
		When I read "Crop Circle Cereal" I thought this would be a very exclusive brand of cereal actually made from cereals gathered from crop circles.
		Since my cereal usually lacks the whole appearance of "stalks" that could be bent sideways to form patterns, I'm a little confused as to what crop circles in cereal would look like, especially in one I'd still want to eat.
		If this gets out, it could be the start of a whole line of supernatural cereals -- cereal of christ ("a miracle in every box!"), cereal killers (with marshmallow body parts and axes), spoon benders "classic" (high in fiber) and "neo" (so light they hardly exist!), and of course abominable frosted flakes.

	PARIDSS: Decomposition of Crop Residue Under Broadleaf and Cereal Crop Canopies and in the Landscape
		The decomposition study under broadleaf and cereal canopies was initiated in the fall of 1994 on a silty clay soil near Melfort and on a clay soil at Tisdale, Saskatchewan.
		The potential for decomposition of buried crop residue is considerable due to higher microbial populations and moisture in the soil.
		It is important to avoid burial of straw where crop residue levels are low to maintain sufficient residue cover to control wind erosion on knolls and water erosion on lower slopes.

	One-third of cereal crop intact (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Farmers in the three northern governorates of Erbil, Dahuk and Sulaymaniyah were not displaced from their homes during the fighting, which meant that they could begin to harvest over the next few weeks, and expect to produce about 500,000 mt of wheat and barley, Came said.
		Unlike the northern governorates which have had adequate rainfall, crops in the south are heavily dependent on irrigation, which in turn depends on electricity - unavailable in many areas since the war - to run pumping networks.
		Crops of vegetables have also been affected by lack of irrigation, leading to a 100 percent rise in prices in the north.

	food outlook No.3, September 2004
		The FAO forecast for world cereal stocks for crop seasons ending in 2005 has been raised significantly since the previous report as a result of bigger crops harvested or forecast in several countries.
		While another fall in cereal stocks in China, the main factor behind consecutive declines in world cereal stock levels in recent years, is likely to be repeated this season, the size of this reduction is expected to be around 15 million tonnes, the smallest decrease since 2000.
		While reduced flows of wheat and coarse grains are forecast as a consequence of low demand from several importing countries with big domestic crops this year, for rice, tight supplies among major exporters is the primary cause of the anticipated decline in trade.
