Off‐season crops as a strategy for renovating degraded pastures and improving maize yield in a low‐altitude tropical region

Agronomy Journal, Volume 117, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract Brazil can expand cultivated areas without deforestation by restoring degraded pastures and optimizing grain production through off‐season crops. This study evaluated eight off‐season treatments, including fallow, monocrops, and intercropping combinations, and their effects on maize (Zea mays L.) intercropped with guinea grass (Megathyrsus ...

Adaptive responses of millet (Pennisetum glaucum) and elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) at salinity

Scientific Electronic Archives, 2019
The Northeast region of Brazil is most affected by the reduction in water availability, contributing directly to the accumulation of salts at the soil surface. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the adaptive responses of Pennisetum glaucum and Pennisetum purpureum submitted to salinity.

Crop performance and profitability for the initial transition years of a regenerative cropping system in the Upper Midwest United States

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page 1572-1585, November/December 2025.
Abstract The transition from conventional to more regenerative cropping systems can be economically risky due to variable transition period yields and unforeseen costs. We compared yields and economic returns for the first 3 years of the transition from a business as usual (BAU) conventional corn (Zea mays)–soybean (Glycine max) rotation to an ...

Enzyme diversity in pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.)

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1992
One hundred and eighty-eight accessions of wild millet, Pennisetum glaucum L. subsp. monodii [syn. P. violaceum (Lam.). L. Rich], representative of the species' geographic distribution, were studied by electrophoresis for polymorphism in eight enzymes: alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), catalase (CAT), β-esterase (EST), glutamate oxalo acetate transaminase ...
