No need to seed: restoring species‐rich grassland on former arable fields by natural regeneration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over the last century, agricultural intensification has caused substantial losses of semi‐natural species‐rich grasslands. One means of restoring grassland habitat is to abandon farmed land, followed by mowing and/or grazing of the established vegetation to facilitate meadow diversification. Objectives This study investigated post‐

Studies on the sensitivity of some species and cultivars of lawn grasses on salinity with sodium chloride during the seed germination and first year of growth

Folia Horticulturae, 2008
In the years 2005 - 2006 studies were conducted in a growth chamber and a vegetation hall which compared tolerance to NaCl salinity of seeds and plants of some lawn grasses.

Herbage components in nitrogen‐fertilized and legume‐containing double‐cropped annual and perennial forages in eastern Nebraska

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Diverse perennial circular systems that focus on grazing offer many environmental benefits. However, the use of annual forages may be necessary where perennial pastures have declined. Our study sought to evaluate herbage components in a double‐cropped annual forage experiment with triticale [×Triticosecale Wittm. ex A. Camus (Secale × Triticum)

UAV‐based RGB and multispectral vegetation indices as alternatives to light box‐derived dark green color index for turfgrass color assessment

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Traditionally, turfgrass color has been assessed through visual ratings or light box‐based digital image analysis, methods that are either subjective or labor‐intensive. In this study, we evaluated the potential of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)‐based multispectral and red‐green‐blue (RGB) imagery as a high‐throughput alternative for capturing ...

Coping With Production Risk: Effects of Sown Plant Diversity on the Attractiveness of Crop Insurance in Grasslands

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1119-1134, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Increased frequency of extreme weather events, particularly droughts, threatens grassland farming by destabilizing yields and farms' economic viability. We examine, theoretically and through numerical simulations, how sown plant diversity (natural insurance) influences the attractiveness of indemnity and drought index insurance (formal ...

Forage mass, accumulation, and nutritive value of four perennial forages grown in a loblolly pine silvopasture in the Mid‐South United States

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Establishing forage in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) plantations has the potential to increase grazing acreage for cattle farms in the Mid‐South, but appropriate species selection still requires investigation. The objective was to evaluate forage mass, accumulation, and nutritive value of four perennial forage species, novel‐endophyte tall ...

Evaluating soil amendments for establishment of centipedegrass sod

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Soil amendments are frequently incorporated prior to turfgrass sod installation to improve rooting and establishment; however, these materials represent a substantial cost to contractors, sod producers, and homeowners. Despite the widespread use of compost, topsoil, and sand, limited information exists on whether these amendments provide ...
