Sustainable Practices for Vegetable Production in the South. 1996. By Mary Peet. Focus Publishing, R. Pullins Co., Newburyport, MA. 174 p.
Sustainable Practices for Vegetable Production in the South by Mary Peet is the result of a USDA Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) grant to North Carolina State University. This was the first attempt by a land-grant university to collate and synthesize information relevant to sustainable vegetable production. Chapters provide overviews on production practices (soil management, cover crops, conservation tillage, and insect, disease, nematode, and weed management) followed by crop profiles on individual vegetable crops. The crop profiles provide a nice summary of standard production practices (botany, plant characteristics, planting, spacing, harvesting).
