Abstract The low yield of cowpeas (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) in sub‐Saharan Africa is credited to several limitations, including poor soil fertility and unsustainable cropping systems. Cereals like maize (Zea mays L.) and legume crops like cowpea support smallholder farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa. Intercropping (more common than rotations) can boost

Corn response to biological products and a nitrification inhibitor
Abstract Atmospheric nitrogen (N2) is converted into ammonia (NH3), a form that plants can use, through biological nitrogen (N) fixation by various microorganisms and bacterial genera. This study assessed the field performance of three biological N‐fixing products, or biostimulants (BS), including Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus (BS1), Klebsiella ...

Comparing the effects of soil test interpretations for P and K on a creeping bentgrass putting green
Abstract Soil testing provides golf course superintendents with the information needed to apply fertilizers at optimal rates, thereby avoiding nutrient deficiencies and unnecessary applications. However, nutrient rate recommendations vary depending on how soil test results are interpreted.

Should cotton growers apply full nitrogen rate when using broiler‐litter as soil amendment?
Abstract Nitrogen plays a critical role in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) production. Interest in using broiler (Gallus gallus domesticus) litter has increased in recent years due to its nutrient and soil health benefits. However, growers typically do not discount the N present in broiler litter and apply a full dose of fertilizer N.

Expected carbon intensity (CI) for Northern Plains corn and soybean
Abstract Potential price premiums for reduced carbon footprint of field crops have led producers to be concerned about the carbon footprint of their crops. This research addresses that concern, using two life‐cycle emissions models, Greenhouse gases, Regulated Emissions, and Energy use in Technologies (GREET) and Integrated Farm System Model (IFSM), to

Effects of potash mining on river ecosystems: An experimental study
In spite of being a widespread activity causing the salinization of rivers worldwide, the impact of potash mining on river ecosystems is poorly understood. Here we used a mesocosm approach to test the effects of a salt effluent coming from a potash mine on algal and aquatic invertebrate communities at different concentrations and release modes (i.e ...
