Advancing Vegetable Production in NNY 2017
Amy Ivy, Vegetable Specialist
Eastern New York Commercial Horticulture
Fresh market vegetable production is on the rise throughout Northern NY. In past years Northern New York Agricultural Development Program-funded vegetable research has addressed various topics and issues related to growing vegetables at a profit, but new information, better methods, and new varieties continue to be developed and are of interest to regional growers.
In 2017, the project team focused on three areas of high tunnel vegetable production:
1) Increasing production and profitability of colored peppers in high tunnels
2) Extending last year's cherry tomato training and pruning trial, tracking labor and yield.
3) Assessing nitrogen availability in cold soils for late fall-winter spinach and its effect on yield.
