Targeted timing of hairy vetch cover crop termination with roller crimper can eliminate glyphosate requirements in no-till sunflower

Agronomy for Sustainable Development, 2022
No-till cropping systems with cover crops can improve soil health, but often rely on glyphosate, which is a contentious herbicide. In this study, we investigated whether a system based on the direct sowing of sunflower (Helianthus annuus) in the dead ...

Can Organic P Inputs Alleviate P Limitation Effects on Nutrient Uptake and Biological N2-Fixing Capacity of Hairy Vetch (Vicia villosa)?

Journal of soil science and plant nutrition, 2022
Phosphorus (P) is a limiting nutrient in many agroecosystems and, apart from affecting plant growth, can also limit biological N2 fixation (BNF) by leguminous plants. Thus, increasing P supply can have a positive effect on BNF particularly in P-deficient

Relay Intercropping Winter Cover Crop Effects on Spring Forage Potential of Sweet Maize Stover and Yearling Cattle Beef Performance

Animals, 2022
Small landholders who grow sweet maize for the fresh produce market often also have cattle with little access to winter forage. Grazing cover crops with sweet maize stover can potentially increase the available nutritive value.

CRISPR-induced knockouts reveal a dual role for the soybean NFR5α gene in symbiotic nitrogen fixation and root hair development. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Nitrogen fixation in soybeans, facilitated by symbiotic interactions with rhizobia, is a cornerstone of sustainable agriculture, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers. However, the efficiency of symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) varies due to natural genetic variation in SNF‐related genes.

Cover Crops Increase N and P Cycling and Rice Productivity in Temperate Cropping Systems

Agronomy, 2022
Cover crops can determine positive benefits on soil fertility and rice productivity, although scant attention has been devoted to evaluating the effects of hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth) and the incorporation of rice straw with different N ...

RESULTS OF STUDYING HAIRY VETCH (VICIA VILLOSA ROTH) IN MONO- AND BINARY AGROPHYTOCOENOSES AT SPRING PLANTING UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF THE NORTH-EAST OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

Труды по прикладной ботанике, генетике и селекции, 2018
Hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth), like common vetch (V. sativa L.), is one of the most widespread cultivated forage vetches. In Russia, hairy vetch is sown both in spring and winter planting seasons. V.
