Evaluación de cinco fungicidas para el manejo de enfermedades foliares y su rentabilidad en el cultivo de tomate (Lycopersicom esculentum mill) c.v. butte, Sébaco, Matagalpa, Nicaragua

El presente trabajo se realizó en la Finca Surco Muerto, Municipio de Sébaco–Matagalpa en el período comprendido de Julio a octubre del 2004, con la finalidad de evaluar diferentes productos fungicidas sistémicos (Phyton 0.5 L. ha-1, Benomil 0.5 kg ha-1 y Curzate 2 kg ha-1) y preventivos (Mancozeb 2 kg ha-1 y Clorotalonil 2 L. ha-1) en el manejo de enfermedades foliares en tomate. El diseño establecido fué el de Bloques Completos al Azar (BCA),con siete tratamientos y cuatro repeticiones. Los resultados indican que el efecto de los tratamientos evaluados sobre el control de Alternaria solani enlas primeras fechas no demuestran diferencia estadística, hasta los 62 días después del trasplante (ddt), donde Clorotalonil se comportó como el mejor tratamiento en protección al follaje.Para la variable severidad de Xanthomonas campestris en follaje los resultados indican, que es a partir de los 78 ddt donde los tratamientos demuestran diferencia estadística, comportándose Phyton como el mejor tratamiento para el manejo de dicha enfermedad.El cultivo también fué fuerte mente afectado por Mosca blanca(Bemisia tabaciGenn.) lo que repercutió en porcentajes de severidad de virosis muy altos(92%),enmascarando un mejor efecto que pudieron haber tenido los tratamientos evaluados. Enrelación a las variables de rendimiento analizadas por contrastes ortogonales, para la variable peso de frutos buenos, el análisis no encontró diferencias estadísticas entre los grupos evaluados.Para la variable peso de frutos afectados por Alternaria el análisis detectó diferencias estadísticas entre los grupos evaluados donde el grupo de los Preventivos (Clorotalonil y Mancozeb) ejercieron mejor control para dicho patógeno por haberse obtenido con ellos los más bajos rendimientos afectados con 40.85 kg ha-1. En la variable peso de frutos afectados por Xanthomonas Campestris pvvesicatoria el análisis no encontró diferencias estadísticas entre los grupos comparados.Para el rendimiento real el análisis encontró diferencias estadísticas, donde demuestra que son los tratamientos preventivos (Mancozeb y Clorotalonil) los que ejercieron el mejor control con el más alto rendimiento 5658.56 kg ha-1.Los resultados del análisis económico indican que el tratamiento rentable es Mancozeb, por obtenerse con el una tasa de retorno marginal de 960.25%. En condiciones de bajo rendimiento es Alternado (Curzate + Clorotalonil +Mancozeb) el tratamiento rentable por obtenerse con el una TRM de 246.95%. Al realizar el análisis de sensibilidad los resultados demuestran que la aplicación de Mancozeb es justificable; aun cuando el precio del tomate disminuye en un 70%, de su precio original,ya que con precios bajos se obtiene una TRM de 1.98%.

Mine-waste pollution of Bear Butte Creek, Black Hills, South Dakota

Effluents leaving the Gilt Edge Mining properties in the Black Hills near Deadwood, South Dakota, were collected during April 1940. Field studies of these effluents and of the streams receiving them were made at the time and subsequently laboratory assays and analyses have been completed. ... Data from this particular case of mine waste pollution are presented here.

The Aplitic Body Bordering Roosevelt Drive South of Butte, Montana

The area studied consists of a large body of aplite situated 12 miles south of Butte. It extends eastward almost to the Butte-Pipestone road, southward to Lime Kiln Hill and westward a distance of 3000 feet. The petrographic work was supplemented by a map of the area. Special attention was given to those frequent "Limonite Specks" found in the aplite.

Joint Planes in the Rhyolites of the Butte District, Montana

The problem herein discussed deals with the pointing planes found in the area of rhyolite located in the northwestern portion of the Butte District. The question to be determined was whether or not the pointing planes in the rhyolites could be class­ified with the Butte Ore fissure systems.

A Microscopic Study of some Volcanic Rocks in the Vicinity of Butte

The rhyolite rocks in the vicinity of Big Butte present a very interesting, though complicated study. It seems that no extensive or conclusive work has ever been done upon these extrusives. I have found that the rhyolites present a very interesting problem, especially microscopically, and that no doubt an intensive study along these lines will solve the problems concerning age relations of different flows and origin of the magma that produced the material for emanations.

Leaching Copper Minerals in the Butte District

The history of mining in Butte is woven about three of our principal metals. The gold placers first attracted the attention of miners in 1863, and reached their peak production in 1867. Silver was the second metal mined, and this operation required the erection of large mills with a consequent increase in mining activity that made the district a prominent producer. Although the presence of copper in the silver ore had been known, the credit for the first development of the copper veins is due Senator W. A. Clark. The original Colusa, Mining Chief, and Gambetta claims were developed to 1872. The ore was freighted by wagon trains 400 miles to Corrine, Utah, thence by rail eastward, some of it going to Swansea, Wales. The cooper production of the "richest hill on earth" has mounted to ten billion pounds.
