Peanut farmers have thus far been reluctant to incorporate reduced tillage as it has not been seen as a viable practice for this particular crop.<img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/7qMTsCid0dQ" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1227232784306012272327843060ScienceDaily: Latest Science NewsTodayScientists have found a way to accurately predict the impact of climate change on imperiled Pacific salmon stocks that could result in better management strategies.<img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/BIORkTOM4z4" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1227228974707012272289747070Daily Wine NewsToday http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1227146392446012271463924460ScienceDaily: Latest Science NewsYesterdayHops contain substances that control pathogenic bacteria in the intestines of chickens, Agricultural Research Service (ARS) scientists and cooperators have reported.<img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/kIBXztU6tVA" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1227222139903012272221399030Wines & VinesYesterday http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1227211295412012272112954120Mercury News, California - Entertainment HeadlinesYesterday http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1227134344872012271343448720Telegraph Food and Drink19 NovA master chef tells you how to prepare a delicious salmon starter and a sumptuous roast goose. http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1227119955221012271199552210ScienceDaily: Latest Science News19 NovRaw milk is illegal in many countries as it can be contaminated with potentially harmful microbes. Contamination can also spoil the milk, making it taste bitter and turn thick and sticky. Now scientists have discovered new species of bacteria that can grow at low temperatures, spoiling raw milk even when it is refrigerated. It seems the microbial population of raw milk is much more complex than previously thought.<img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/1-J8Im--78A" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1227064811348012270648113480ScienceDaily: Latest Science News19 NovThe well-documented worldwide decline in the number of bees and other pollinators is not, at this stage, limiting global crop yields, according to an article in Current Biology.<img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/ajf1a9Na-LU" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1227031166177012270311661770ScienceDaily: Latest Science News18 NovHistorians explain that the current version of Thanksgiving was created by a journalistic crusader, and would have been unrecognizable to the Pilgrims it supposedly honors.<img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/ZkHkj5rrKV8" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1226988433418012269884334180ScienceDaily: Latest Science News18 NovEthanol helped drive two years of record profits for grain farmers, but also will hold income down during a looming recession that has already sliced crop prices in half, an economist says.<img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/bCNjtlozx5M" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1226988391457012269883914570ScienceDaily: Latest Science News18 NovImages from NASA satellites give a wider perspective of the full extent and devastation of the wildfires raging in Southern California.<img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/vNwKwr54bmg" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1226918760975012269187609750Decanter News17 NovYesterday's auction at the Hospices de Beaune took over €3m – less than last year but with a reduced number of barrels for sale.<img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/wwwdecantercomfeedsrssnewsxml/~4/PAtoXOj_Cns" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1226633220659012266332206590ScienceDaily: Latest Science News14 NovIn the French Mediterranean region, scattered habitations are gradually gaining on the forest, increasing the risk of fire start-ups and creating new elements that need protection. In Aix-en-Provence, Cemagref has developed a quasi-automatic method to map habitat?forest interfaces. This tool is of primary interest to land use managers and the actors involved in the fight against forest fires to prevent risk as well as to protect populations and property in case of fire.<img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/TZdC9DzbBvQ" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.winesciencenews.com/r/id/1226599583224012265995832240ScienceDaily: Latest Science News13 NovA gene mutation that causes high levels of uric acid in all Dalmatian dogs and bladder stones in some Dalmatians, has been identified.

More than half of original wetland acreage in the U.S. has been destroyed or degraded, but some has been restored in recent decades under the federal government's "no net loss" policy.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/450894675" height="1" width="1"/>
