Sustainability of Corn Stover Harvest for Biomass [PDF]
Off-farm demand for crop residues is expected to grow as bioenergy policies become effective. Demand for residues will provide farmers with an additional source of revenue but it may also trigger losses in soil organic carbon and increases in fertilizer ...

Carbon, Water, and Energy Flux Dynamics in Different Cropping Systems in the Great Lakes Region
Abstract This study examined carbon (C), water, and energy exchanges across different cropping systems in the Great Lakes region using eddy covariance (EC) fluxes from an agricultural flux tower site (CA‐TPA) in southern Ontario, Canada. The site was cultivated with corn in 2020 and 2021, sweet potato in 2022, and tobacco in 2023. The site was a strong
