Mulching does not improve seedling survival or growth during early forest restoration
Abstract Introduction Weed control is one of the main operational challenges and cost components of tropical forest restoration in former pasturelands. Physical barriers (mulches) have been proposed as an alternative to conventional ring weeding because they can suppress competing vegetation while potentially improving the soil microenvironment ...

Assessing short‐stature corn hybrids for irrigated Mid‐South production systems
Abstract Short‑stature (SS) corn (Zea mays L.) hybrids represent an emerging phenotype with distinct morphological characteristics, but their performance under irrigated Mid‑South conditions is not well documented. We compared two SS hybrids (H1 and H2) and three tall‐stature (TS) hybrids (H3, H4, and H5) over two seasons.

Considerations for Determining Optimal Row Spacing in Soybean Production
Abstract Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) row spacing in the US varies from about 7 to 40 inches, but there has been a widespread shift from wide (≈30 inches) to narrow (≈15 inches) row spacing in the last decades, largely driven by a consensus that narrow rows can yield higher.

Enhancing spring green‐up of warm‐season turfgrasses through late‐winter scalping
Abstract Rapid spring green‐up of warm‐season turfgrasses in the transition zone is often desired to improve early‐season turfgrass quality, thereby increasing the acceptance of these species in arid and semi‐arid climates. This study evaluated the effects of late winter scalping on spring green‐up speed in 41 cultivars of bermudagrass (Cynodon spp ...
