Which indicators are most effective at detecting rapid shifts in soil health?
Abstract Farmers are showing a growing interest in soil health. Therefore, it is necessary to understand how and when indicators respond to changes in land management. Measurements of soil carbon (C) and nitrogen can take up to a decade to shift. However, it is unknown how other biotic markers of soil health (i.e., nematode communities) react.

Evaluating Phosphorus Sorption and Desorption in Agricultural Wastewater Using Designer Biochar Pellets. [PDF]
This study evaluated the effectiveness of designer biochar pellets (DBPs) in adsorbing phosphorus from tile drain outflow and agricultural wastewater effluents, with performance varying depending on the effluent source. Results highlight the potential of biochar‐based filters for targeted phosphorus removal, providing a promising approach to reduce ...

Reframing anaerobic digestion as a defossilization platform
Abstract Anaerobic digestion (AD) coupled with carbon capture, utilization, and/or storage (CCUS) is a deployable bioenergy platform that supplies renewable energy and bioresources while valorizing biogenic CO2 for integrated carbon management on the pathway to net‐zero.

Does rotational bale grazing affect the distribution of soil nutrients across pastures?
Abstract Rotational bale grazing (RBG), the strategic feeding of round hay bales directly on pasture with controlled access, offers an alternative to continuous winter hay feeding in a single paddock. This study evaluated RBG's potential to redistribute nutrients by increasing soil concentrations in field areas with lower phosphorus (P) and potassium ...
