Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Wildlife plays an important role in the emergence of livestock diseases, and their movements can complicate disease management efforts. One of the most significant vector‐borne diseases of livestock worldwide is bovine babesiosis, spread by cattle fever ticks (CFTs; Rhipicephalus [=Boophilus] microplus and Rhipicephalus [=Boophilus] annulatus).

Forage conservation in sub‐Saharan Africa: Review of experiences, challenges, and opportunities
Agronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 1, Page 75-99, January/February 2022., 2022 Abstract Forage conservation is an important potential solution to seasonal variation in feed quality and quantity and herder‐farmer conflicts in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA). Considerable variations exist in the type of forages conserved and the preservation methods across SSA. Hay from cultivated forages is commonly made with mechanical mowers and balers

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

Guiding fall fertilization of cool‐season turfgrass lawns with verdure tissue‐N tests
Crop Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 2090-2112, May 2021., 2021 Abstract Objective tests are not widely used to guide fall N fertilization of turfgrasses, and N is applied at predetermined rates regardless of plant‐N status. This study was conducted across 3 yr in Connecticut to determine if fall verdure concentrations of total N, dry‐tissue extractable nitrate (NO3)–N, and fresh sap NO3–N could guide fall N ...
