Fall grazing improves the performance of Kernza intermediate wheatgrass as a dual‐purpose crop

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Kernza intermediate wheatgrass (IWG) [Thinopyrum intermedium (Host) Barkworth & D.R. Dewey] is a perennial grain and forage crop with novel dual‐use potential. Grazing IWG forage and/or intercropping IWG with legumes can increase total annual forage yields, but the effect of grazing timing on grain yield needs to be understood to maximize ...

Onto greener pastures with rotational grazing of cover crops: Lessons learned from four on‐farm case studies

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Cover crops are touted for improving soil health, reducing nutrient losses to ground and surface waters, and providing soil protection between cash‐crop growing seasons. While they may improve cash crop yield stability and resilience in the long term, cover crops incur seed, planting, termination, and labor costs to farmers while providing ...

Methane inhibition in sheep fed Asparagopsis armata and Mootral™

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 68, Issue 7, Page 1832-1845, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The effects of supplements of Asparagopsis armata and Mootral™ (fed once daily to sheep on a dried roughage diet) on feed intake, ruminal metabolites, and methane and hydrogen emissions (respiration chambers) were determined. Following adaptation (Phase 1), in Phase 2 (16 days), 12 sheep were supplemented with Mootral™ (4 g/day) with 12 ...
