VIRGINIA FARMERS' SOIL CONSERVATION DECISIONS: AN APPLICATION OF TOBIT ANALYSIS

Using data from a survey of farm operators in two Virginia counties, the authors analyze farmers' soil conservation decisions. Results indicate that financial factors, including income and debt, are the most important influences on the sample farmers ...

Soil Loosening of Compacted Urban Tree Sites Using a Pneumatic Lance Injector: Quantifying Treatment Success Through Tree Morphology and Soil Structure Parameters via Terrestrial Laser Scanning

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Urban trees provide essential ecosystem services, but their growth and longevity are often limited by soil compaction. Although pneumatic lance injection (PLI) is increasingly promoted as a minimally invasive and efficient soil loosening technique, but robust scientific evidence for its long‐term effectiveness remains limited.

Liebig Review: Essential and Beneficial Elements in the Regulation of Cadmium Uptake and Tolerance in Crop Plants

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd2+) contamination in agricultural soils has been reported to pose risks to crop productivity, food safety, and human health. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the mechanisms by which essential (S, Zn, Fe, Mg, K, Ca) and beneficial (Si, Se, rare earth elements) elements mitigate Cd2+ toxicity in plants.

Tillage 2000 and its effect on awareness of conservation tillage

, 1988
The major purpose of this study was to examine the factors that motivate farmers in southwestern Ontario to adopt conservation tillage practices. Specifically, this research focussed on the adoption of conservation tillage practices in conjunction with Tillage 2000, an on-farm conservation tillage demonstration and research program. Through analysis of

Optimising Sulphur Fertilisation in Ryegrass–White Clover Swards Reduces Leached Nitrate Nitrogen Losses, While Increasing Plant Yield and Nitrogen Off‐Take

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
The inclusion of sulphur at two inorganic nitrogen rates (0 and 150 kg N ha−1) improves plant productivity in a ryegrass–white clover sward and reduces nitrate‐N loss to groundwater in a free‐draining sandy loam soil. ABSTRACT Background Reducing nitrogen (N) losses to water, lessening reliance on inorganic fertiliser and maintaining agricultural ...
