Evaluation of residue management practices on barley residue decomposition. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Optimizing barley (hordeum vulgare L.) production in Idaho and other parts of the Pacific Northwest (PNW) should focus on farm resource management. The effect of post-harvest residue management on barley residue decomposition has not been adequately ...

Present trends, sustainable strategies and energy potentials of crop residue management in India: A review

open access: yesHeliyon
India generating huge amount of agricultural waste, especially crop residues. In India, around 141 MT of crop residue is generated each year, in which 92 MT burned due to inadequate sustainable management practices, which results in rise in emissions of ...

Post-Harvest N2O Emissions Can Be Mitigated With Organic Amendments

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
After the harvest of winter oilseed rape and faba bean crops, considerable high soil nitrate values may be built up before winter in central to north European regions. High precipitation and a low N uptake by the subsequent crop in fall cause a high risk

An Agro-Climatic Approach to Developing a National Prevention Tool for Deoxynivalenol in French Maize-Growing Areas

open access: yesToxins, 2022
The levels of deoxynivalenol (DON)—a mycotoxin produced by Fusarium graminearum—in maize for food and feed are subject to European Union regulations. Obtaining a compliant harvest requires the identification of agronomic and climatic risk factors related

Legume Cover Crop Alleviates the Negative Impact of No-Till on Tomato Productivity in a Mediterranean Organic Cropping System

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
The ecosystem services a cover crop (CC) provides depend enormously on species choice and tillage system. Here, we evaluated the impact of (a) three winter CCs—rye (Secale cereale L.) and squarrose clover (Trifolium squarrosum L.) monocultures and their ...

Impacts of tillage practice on the productivity of durum wheat in Ethiopia

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture, 2021
Frequent tillage and removal of crop residue from arable land after harvest is increasing soil runoff, reduce in situ soil moisture and soil fertility as a result decrease crop yield. Conservation tillage is a technique that can mitigate these situations

Model-based assessment of biomass incorporation to mitigate nitrogen losses from arable fields in Central Europe

open access: yesFrontiers in Agronomy, 2023
Nitrogen (N) loss by leaching is a major concern in common crop rotations in Central Europe due to high post-harvest soil mineral N, low N uptake in autumn/winter, and percolation.

An Evaluation of Cultural and Chemical Control Practices to Reduce Slug Damage in No-till Corn

open access: yesInsects, 2022
Slugs, primarily the gray garden slug, Deroceras reticulatum (Müller), are the most damaging non-arthropod pest of corn grown in conservation tillage systems in the US. These mollusks favor decaying plant residue on the soil surface, which provides food,
