Subject: New Fruit & Vegetable Information on the OMAFRA Crops pages

For Fruit Growers: Cover crops such as marigolds, pearl millet, and hot
mustards can reduce nematode populations without affecting beneficial
organisms or the environment. Read more in this Update on the effect and
extent of nematode suppression with cover crops, now online at
http://www.omafra.gov.on.ca/english/crops/hort/news/allontario/ao0108a2.htm

For Vegetable Growers: 
Did you know that the finest lateral roots only live about 2 weeks? Or that
new roots can be started or initiated within 24 hours of a change in the
soil environment. Read (or listen to) this Sound Advice on "The Hidden World
of Roots", now online at
http://www.omafra.gov.on.ca/english/crops/updates/soundadvice/jan08r2.htm
