Finding the right mix: a framework for selecting seeding rates for cover crop mixtures. [PDF]
Abstract Cover crop mixtures have the potential to provide more ecosystem services than cover crop monocultures. However, seeding rates that are typically recommended (i.e. seeding rate of monoculture divided by the number of species in the mixture) are non‐optimized and often result in the competitive species dominating the mixture, and therefore ...

Abstract Natural soil inundation caused by frequent and intense precipitation affects carbon allocation in grassland biomass, ultimately leading to changes in soil carbon storage. Increasing forage diversity could provide resiliency to inundation of grassland.

Rye planting date impacts biomass production more than seeding rate and nitrogen fertilizer
Abstract Management is critical to maximize cover crop benefits, while minimizing costs. However, cover crop performance and cost can vary without consistent management strategies. Therefore, we investigated how four planting dates (late October, early November, late November, and early December), two seeding rates (67 and 101 kg ha−1), and four N ...

Cover crop planting practices determine their performance in the U.S. Corn Belt
Abstract Cover crop growing periods in the western U.S. Corn Belt could be extended by planting earlier. We evaluated both pre‐harvest broadcast interseeding and post‐harvest drilling of the following cover crops: (a) cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) [RYE]; (b) a mix of rye + legumes + brassicas [MIX1], (c) a mix of rye + oat [Avena sativa L.] + legumes +

Abstract Grazing stimulates root and forage mass of perennial pastures, but few studies have addressed the effects of grazing on annual pastures which are often grown in short periods within integrated crop–livestock systems (ICLS). In these pastures, N fertilization is a common practice to increase forage mass, but its effects on root morphology are ...

The medium‐term impacts of integrated crop–livestock systems on crop yield and economic performance
Abstract Integrated crop–livestock (ICL) systems are diverse production systems that can improve resource utilization through spatially or temporally rotating land among crop, livestock, and pasture uses. However, research on whether the enhanced resource utilization translates to greater crop productivity is still warranted.

Poultry litter and cover crops influence the agronomic performance and grain yield of wheat
The use of poultry litter as a source of nitrogen (N) and the decomposition of ground cover plants can be an alternative and N management strategy in the wheat crop, in succession.
