Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Seed moisture content (SMC) is the most reliable indicator of seed maturity and the optimal harvest timing in grass seed crops. Current SMC testing methodologies used in grass seed crops are slow or inaccurate, making it difficult to make timely harvest decisions.

Assessing forage mass using smartphone imagery for cereal rye under grazing conditions in Nebraska
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Managing grazing efficiency requires reliable and practical tools to estimate forage mass. Traditional methods like clipping, though accurate, are time consuming and labor intensive. In this study, two imaging tools, Canopeo and the Crop Canopy Image Analyzer (CCIA), were evaluated for their efficacy in estimating the forage mass of cereal rye

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Sod grown on plastic (SOP) is a sod established on a thin layer of growing medium atop a plastic sheet. It can be harvested with minimal damage to the roots, thereby reducing transplant shock. Kentucky bluegrass (KBG; Poa pratensis L.) is a commonly used cool‐season turfgrass species in sod production and sports fields. However, KBG is slow to

Timing of cultural and chemical methods to remove perennial ryegrass overseeded in bermudagrass
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L.) is a warm‐season grass that is often overseeded with cool‐season perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) in the fall to provide green cover. Overseeded bermudagrass is desirable from late fall to early spring; however, turfgrass managers face challenges removing it in the spring and summer months.
