Publications

NebGuides Under Construction
We are in the process of switching all of our NebGuides to Web-only publication. To ensure our readers the most accurate and timely information, many of our titles are currently under review and revision and will be reposted as soon as they are available. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause in the short-term.

Drinking Water: Storing an Emergency Supply
Taking a little time now to store an emeregncy water supply can prepare you for all types of disasters. If your water supply is disrupted, you will be able to provide for your whole family and possibly others. Effective methods of preparing water for storage includes disinfection with chlorine and storing at room temperature, disinfection with chlorine and freezing, or canning. This is NebGuide G04-1536-A .

Soybean Rust: How Great is the Threat for Nebraska?
Soybean rust is a serious foliar disease that has caused significant crop losses in other parts of the world. It was first detected in the United States in November 2004 and has since been identified in several southeastern states. The fact that wind-borne spores principally spread soybean rust suggests it will be a seasonal problem in Nebraska. This NebGuide (NF633) provides background information and answers to commonly asked questions about this foliar disease.

Horticulture Topics
