Effect of three‐way interaction between soil tillage, drainage and depths on soil properties in reseeded pastures. Abstract Background Grassland reseeding typically requires intensive tillage. This disrupts soil nutrient dynamics, especially under varying drainage conditions. Methods This study evaluated the combined effects of tillage legacy, drainage

Key soil health indicators under humid grazing lands
Soil health can be described using a few key soil health indicators that target a diversity of soil functions. This perspective article highlights how forage management affects these soil health indicators in humid‐zone grazing lands. Abstract Background Soil health describes critical soil functions influenced by land management. Although some key soil

Suppression of weed and insect populations by living cover crop mulches in organic squash production
Living mulch systems can provide multiple agronomic and ecosystem benefits, including reducing erosion and decreasing weed and pest pressure. However, inconsistent yields and lack of best practices for weed and pest management have contributed to their ...
