Assessing the impacts of stakeholder involvement in long‐term agricultural experiments via a case study in the upper US Midwest

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural researchers are increasingly encouraged to engage with stakeholders to improve the usefulness of their projects, but iterative research on the design and assessment of stakeholder engagement is scarce. The USDA Long‐Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) Network recognizes the importance of effective engagement in increasing the ...

Evaluating the potential for snowmelt phosphorus losses from perennial forage crops

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract In cold regions, there is concern that losses of P with snowmelt runoff following freeze and thaw of vegetation may be greater from perennial forages relative to annual crops. We evaluate the drivers of P losses with snowmelt runoff over a network of field‐scale small watersheds in Manitoba, Canada, following annual crops (59 site‐years ...

Integrating livestock and cropping systems: Interseeding cereal rye into corn for grazing

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Interseeding annual forages into growing corn may be an alternative for both cover and grazing in temperate regions of the United States. A 4‐year experiment evaluated the effect of interseeding cereal rye (Secale cereale) into corn for grazing after harvest on corn grain, forage biomass yield and quality, soil health, and estimated spatial ...

Environmental sustainability in US dairy farms: Policies, practices, and outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Improving sustainability on US dairy farms has become a critical focus across the industry. As dairy farms continue to consolidate, there is a growing need to identify scalable, implementable soil health management practices that enhance environmental sustainability in the fields managed by the dairy.

Characterizing the fine‐scale spatial distribution of soil phosphorus for efficient phosphorus management in an Illinois tile‐drained field

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Closed depressions in post‐glacial landscapes can accumulate phosphorus (P) due to repeated flooding and become hotspots for P loss when underlain by subsurface (tile) drainage. Soil P mapping is routinely based on the interpolation of samples from a 1‐ha grid, which may miss closed depressions and underestimate soil P levels leading to ...

Fall‐applied manure can conserve excess soil‐profile inorganic‐N for the subsequent cropping year

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract To investigate dairy manure urea fertilizer interactions in cropped soils of the semiarid‐West, we fall‐applied and incorporated (0–0.3 m) soil urea‐N (FertN) rates of 10 (N0), 45 (N1), and 80 mg N kg−1 (N2), co‐applied with either no manure or 86 Mg ha−1 (dry wt.) stockpiled dairy manure.

Do Sojourn Effects on Personality Trait Changes Last? A Five‐Year Longitudinal Study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Personality, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract This study examined sojourners' long‐term personality trait changes over five years, extending previous research on immediate sojourn effects. A sample of German students (N = 1095) was surveyed thrice (T1–T3) over the course of an academic year.

Testing Wisconsin P index assessments across cropping systems

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Managing agricultural runoff phosphorus (P) often requires understanding management effects on both dissolved P (DP) and particulate (sediment‐bound) P (PP). The Wisconsin P index (WPI) allows producers to assess land management effects on runoff P by estimating annual P losses in mass per unit area.

Nitrous oxide mitigation potential of biochar derived from agricultural and forest biomass: Effects of feedstock composition and pyrolysis temperature

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Biochar application to soil has been promoted to mitigate climate change by reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, yet significant uncertainty exists in quantifying soil nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from biochar‐amended soils. We evaluated soil N2O emissions from soils amended with biochar prepared from diverse agricultural and forest ...
