The Consequences of Agricultural Chemical Trespass into Illinois Ecosystems
Переглядів 3123 місяці тому
The landscape of Illinois has been devoted primarily to agriculture for more than 100 years. Agricultural intensification has led to an increased use of synthetic pesticides to manage field crop weeds, which can move into natural ecosystems and negatively impact non-target plants. In 2023, the Illinois Natural History Survey sampled nearly 200 naturally vegetated areas across the state to under...

    The Bellevue Savanna forest was located on the Savanna Army Depot location, mostly in Jo Daviess county. This national forest was part of the proving grounds and weapons depot. After the depot closed in 2000, the area eventually became part of the upper Mississippi wildlife refuge.

      It is hard to say. Our oaks can have a variety of growth forms depending on the conditions and competition around it when growing. Send a picture of the oaks (including close up of the leaves) and what state/county you are in to cwevans@illinois.edu and we can help identify them.

    I've got some bad actors doing this to our neighborhood. My property is the target but the spray patterns give them away😢. When I'm waking up to herbacides/pesticides smelling so strong I'm tasting it so strongly it's burning my tongue. This video helped solidify what I already suspected. I seen this person trying to pour something over a 6 ft privacy fence. While I sat in the dark checking out the stars and Salmon moon. He couldn't see me but I surely was watching him like Scooby Doo creeping up to my private property.

    Man I've been pulling a lot of these things now. I find it easier to pull out now while the gorund is still wet and soft. Some woody invasives I can't get up.

I ask because i found a sorbus domestica in northern wi . i wish to confirm identification because it seems to be a posible native or hybrid and i am looking for a link to some older tree because this one is on a bog. Blooms in june and is not an american sorbus. I know domestic can root grow easily. I known of this tree in wi for 50 yrs. i would age it at aprox 100 yrs but becaus of the regenerative quality it maybe 80 -beyond 100 yrs.

    Ticks have a two year three lives stages. The second stage the host is typically a rodent. Installing Owl nest boxes to check the rodent population is an important step in the control of ticks. North of the 40 degree latitude line Northern Saw-whet Owl boxes for forest areas to control the white footed forest mice that are highly infected with disease. After nesting season they move into southern Illinois. Screech Owl nest boxes could be used south of 40 degree latitude. Barn Owls like hunting over more open areas like no-till vole friendly habitat. There are fewer forests with trees with nesting cavities and wood barns. There are more metal machine buildings. Owls need safe nesting boxes. They will work for housing.

I would also think logging these trees would cause the islands to erode away. or at least that has been my observation in the past. I have lived on the Rock River for over 50 years.
