Crop Quotations

Year after year, we see a new crop of musicians who do their best to look tough in lipstick and makeup. Maybe it's a cry for help, an admission of their strong feminine side, or the realization that they don't look so good any other way. Whatever the reason, makeup is as rock n' roll as a Marshall stack.

I look up to Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn and old styles. You will never see me in a crop top and hot pants - I'm more into dresses.

Equally, it is impossible to talk about adapting to climate change without considering how we will feed ourselves. And it is out of the question that we can adapt agriculture without conserving crop diversity.

My waist used to be tiny. I just saw a picture of Miley Cyrus with a little crop top and low pants, and I'm like, 'That was me growing up in Brazil!' I had the typical model body, but after babies, it changed. I look more like a woman.

Daniel Goleman has proven that two-thirds of the success in business is based upon our Emotional Intelligence as opposed to our IQ or our level of experience. As we look for the next crop of future CEOs, maybe it's time for America's corporations to start interviewing grads from the psychology master's programs rather than the M.B.A. programs.

If I had more confidence, I would rock a crop top.

My mother tells me of when I was 10 or 11 and I'd wear really tight, short skirts and crop tops. All the local men would wolf whistle and stop and stare, but I didn't realise why at the time.

Is there any possibility of giving international air travel, which we all need and use and hate, a touch of glamour, or even of reliable, soulless efficiency? I suspect future historians will puzzle over our failure. But by then, of course, we shall be in the age of mass space travel, with its fresh and unimaginable crop of horrors.

On my days off, I love denim cut off shorts with gladiator sandals and crop tops.

Crop insurance should be a policy that keeps people from going broke, to make sure they can farm next year, but not to make them rich.

We have not authorized additional imports. We need to review whether we still need it. The crop is coming out slightly higher than our earlier projection.

We're able to sense how a crop grows within a field, much like a yield monitor will make a map based on yield. We can create different variable application maps to control different rates of fertilizers and chemicals that are put on the field automatically through a GPS receiver.

Last year, there was a bumper crop of food-borne illnesses from FDA-regulated foods.

Much of the run-up this year has to do with a smaller-than-expected crop in China due to excessive rains.

One of our roles at the Forestry Commission is to provide Georgia landowners with high-quality, accurate and timely timber price information. Georgia has 24.3 million acres of forestland available for commercial use and timber is the highest valued vegetative crop in the state. Since timber prices vary across the state, Forest2Market had divided Georgia into three primary timber pricing regions. Forest2Market's report will serve as a valuable tool to help Georgia's Forest Products Industry compete in the global market. We are pleased to provide a timber market report specific to Georgia.

Plenty of rain this year has helped crop production, especially rice and corn, after falling sharply last year because of drought.

Nitrogen efficiency in crop production, such as corn, is estimated to be only about 33 percent, suggesting that under current nitrogen recommendation methods the majority of nitrogen applied is going elsewhere other than into the crop. On top of that, it's becoming more of an economic penalty to over-apply nitrogen.

Hale has dominated this tour. Probably the only reason I came out of last year as Player of the Year was because Irwin's back went out on him at the U.S. open and he couldn't play for a while. He's the cream of the crop out here.

It appears that this is a win for consumers. This bill would definitely fix some of the accounting problems that we've seen crop up ... over the last six months.

I think the depth is there but what we've got, I think, is a crop of four, five, maybe half a dozen bowlers all in the pack. We'd like to see one of those put their hand up and really come out of that pack and really grab that opportunity once it's given to them.

I think sunflower has kind of come full circle. It was a Cinderella crop in the late 1970s and early 1980s. But as other crops have had technology - Roundup Ready corn, herbicides and insect resistance - growers have opted for those technologies in lieu of sunflower.

Our peach crop in Chilton County in a good year is probably worth in the neighborhood of $10 million, and local growers have reported a 30-percent increase in yields as the result of information they got from the meeting. This is a very important meeting for us.

First crop hay was abundant, but yields for 2nd, 3rd and 4th cuttings have seen significant reductions. I think overall there may be about a 25 percent drop in the alfalfa crop here, which includes a reduction caused by fairly extensive winterkill in some fields.

Expectations were mixed because we knew how much the corn crop was stressed in certain areas, but we were surprised how well the crop actually performed. Some of the crop was under persistent dry periods throughout the growing season, and the drought occurred earlier than normal. Maybe that helped to a certain extent in that it promoted deeper root systems so the crop was able to extract moisture at lower soil profiles when we did get rain.

We're struggling to provide adequate food to our agencies because we've had cuts in USDA commodities. We aren't getting the canned beans, vegetables and fruit that we used to. We're hearing that the amount of canned food is down because of crop failures, but the federal government hasn't put any new money into the program for ten years.

Upside potential will probably be limited if we're basing it just on the cold temperatures until we get a more accurate assessment of whether damage did actually take place. We've seen this wheat crop too many times - we've 'killed' it and it turns around and comes back stronger than ever.

Led by veterans Amanda Williams and Kelly Darby, who were joined by standout talent Susana Salazar, the Indians are looking forward to growing into a real contender by the end of this season. For the boys, we have a large crop of late arrivals that have recently come out, and we're hoping they help us rebuild our boys program toward where it stood in the league a few years back.

We kind of stuck our necks out purchasing this property. We almost certainly would have made money by developing it. But in a way, we are developing it. We're developing it back to nature. At the end of day, you have a crop of trees, not houses.
