Short‐term effects of grass–legume mixtures on greenhouse gas fluxes in southeastern US cool‐season annual forage systems

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences & Environment
The agricultural sector contributes to the greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes in the United States. In livestock systems, grass–legume mixtures provide agronomic benefits, but their role in GHG mitigation remains understudied.

Seed Germination and Early Seedling Growth Responses to Drought Stress in Annual Medicago L. and Trifolium L. Forages

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Climate change in the Mediterranean-like regions of South Africa has resulted in increased rainfall variability, a delayed start to the wet winter season, and increased occurrences of out-of-season summer rainfall events.

Vegetation dynamics in nitrogen‐fertilized versus mixed legume‐smooth bromegrass pastures interseeded with sorghum‐sudangrass

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 115, Issue 2, Page 674-686, March/April 2023., 2023
Abstract Interseeding annual warm‐season grasses may increase forage and pasture productivity. From 2017 to 2019, we conducted a grazing experiment that examined smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss.) pasture responses to interseeding sorghum‐sudangrass [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench × S. bicolor (L.) Moench ssp.

Improving bermudagrass in the Southeastern United States with alfalfa as an alternative nitrogen source in grazing systems

open access: yesGrassland Research, Volume 1, Issue 4, Page 280-289, December 2022., 2022
Alfalfa‐bermudagrass mixture under rotational grazing in Tifton, GA 2018. Abstract Background Bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) is one of the most common perennial warm‐season forages grown in the Southeastern United States. The incorporation of alfalfa (Medicago sativa) into bermudagrass pastures could serve as an alternative source of nitrogen (N) while ...

Alteration of plant species mixtures by virus infection: Managed pastures the forgotten dimension

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 71, Issue 6, Page 1255-1281, August 2022., 2022
This review seeks to highlight the major contribution made by past studies in managed pasture towards understanding the impacts of virus infection on the species balance in mixed plant species systems. Abstract What occurs when virus infection is spreading within a mixed plant species population?

Conciliating Traditional Green Manure Technique and Modern Precision Agriculture

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
Currently the productivity of some European cropping systems is maintained artificially by increasing production factors like mineral fertilizers or pesticides in order to mask the loss of productivity resulting from soil quality degradation.

Effect of intercropping wheat with forage legumes on wheat production and ground cover Efeito do consórcio entre trigo e leguminosas forrageiras na produção de trigo e na cobertura de solo

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2001
The use of winter legumes in southern Brazil is hindered by the slow growth of these species during establishment exposing soil surface to erosion. Introduction of these species along with spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was studied as a means of ...
