Cover cropping increased nitrogen use efficiency indices in silage cropping systems
Abstract Excessive and inefficient use of nitrogen (N) fertilizers in cropping systems can harm the environment, soil, and human health. Cover crops can improve soil health over time, but their impact on nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is not fully understood.

Net aerial primary production of a James Bay, Ontario, salt marsh
Aboveground plant biomass and litter measurements were made at four intervals between mid-June and late August 1977 on a subarctic salt marsh located at North Point on the southwestern shore of James Bay, Ontario. We sampled six salt marsh zones ranging

Abstract Common strategies to mitigate soil degradation of agricultural soils include cover crop application and soil amendment addition. Applying dredged sediments as a soil amendment is gaining popularity since they often provide benefits other amendments lack; however, their use with cover crops is largely unexplored.

Abstract In the irrigated arid regions of Iraq, soil degradation and severe evaporative demand constrain legume productivity. Although ecological intensification using organic amendments is widely promoted, the specific mechanisms governing crop–weed–soil interactions remain poorly understood.

Mung bean yield stability exists across seeding rates
Abstract Mung bean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] is gaining attention as a sustainable, high‐protein legume with the potential to diversify cropping systems in temperate regions such as Iowa. However, optimal agronomic management practices, including seeding rate, remain largely unexplored in this region. This study evaluated the effects of seeding rate

Seasonal aboveground net primary production by species per plot
Deserts and semi-deserts are characterized as ecosystems of low primary productivity, but a more pertinent trait is the variability of plant production in space and time.

Agronomic and economic responses of reduced‑lignin and conventional alfalfa to potassium
Abstract Lignin‐modified (reduced‐lignin) alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) cultivars offer improved forage digestibility but may differ from non–lignin‐modified (conventional) cultivars in nutrient requirements. This study evaluated the effects of potassium (K) fertilization on stem production, forage accumulation, K uptake, forage nutritive value, and ...
