Maize and sorghum root growth and yield when intercropped with forage grasses
Agronomy Journal, Volume 113, Issue 6, Page 4900-4915, November/December 2021., 2021 Abstract Integrated crop–livestock systems that intercrop forage crops with grain crops are effective for increasing forage production and improving nutrient cycling and soil health. However, the potential for root competition when maize (Zea mays L.) and sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] are intercropped with forages in sandy soils is unknown. The

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 3, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 Abstract Litter decomposition, particularly from belowground pools, is a key process controlling the flow of nutrients and the sustainability of native and cultivated grazinglands. This study evaluated in situ belowground decomposition of saw‐palmetto (Serenoa repens [W.

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 1-9, 2019., 2019 Core Ideas Grassland is a widespread agroecosystem in the globe; however, not enough attention has been given to link grazing management to soil health. Grazing management practices greatly impact soil quality. Moderate stocking rate are more adequate to keep grassland stability.

The genotype does not influence the establishment of elephantgrass (Pennisetum purpureum Schum.)
Acta Scientiarum. Animal Sciences, 2022 This study investigated whether genotype influences the establishment of Pennisetum purpureum Schumach. The experimental design was a randomized complete blocks with four treatments and eight replications (n=8). The treatments were four genotypes of P. purpureum, two classified as tall sizes: P. purpureum cv. Elephant B and cv.

EDIS, 2011 Elephantgrasses were introduced from Africa to the U.S. in the early 1900s, with dwarf varieties like Mott emerging in the 1940s and 1970s. Mott elephantgrass reaches 5–6 feet in height, making it more manageable than taller types. It boasts high forage quality with 12%–14% crude protein and 65%–70% digestibility when properly fertilized.

Impediments to Hybridization between Napiergrass and different Pennisetum Species
Crop Science, Volume 57, Issue 4, Page 2043-2050, July–August 2017., 2017 Napiergrass [Pennisetum purpureum (Schum.) Morrone] is a robust, perennial, warm‐season grass that grows throughout the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Some genotypes have sufficient winter hardiness to survive winters in the Gulf Coast region of the United States.

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1015-1024, September 2016., 2016 Abstract Second‐generation biofuels and bio‐based products derived from lignocellulosic biomass are likely to replace current fuels derived from simple sugars and starch because of greater yield potential and less competition with food production. Besides the high aboveground biomass production, these bioenergy grasses also exhibit extensive root ...

Leather Industry Solid Waste as Nitrogen Source for Growth of Common Bean Plants
Applied and Environmental Soil Science, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010 The leather industry generates large amounts of a Cr‐containing solid waste (wet blue leather). This material is classified by the Brazilian Environmental Council as a category‐one waste, requiring a special disposal. The patented process Br n. PI 001538 is a technique to remove chromium from wet blue leather, with the recovery of a solid collagenic ...
