Balancing Production and Environmental Goals in Pasture‐Based Dairy Systems: A Longitudinal Case Study of Transition in a High Performing New Zealand Farm

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Production and environmental outputs of intensive pasture‐based dairy systems must be rebalanced to reduce overall environmental footprint. This analysis documents the tactical management changes that enabled Lincoln University Dairy Farm (LUDF) to transition from high nitrogen (N) inputs (345 kg N fertiliser/ha/year) to a lower N input strategy (167 ...

Growth, Development, and Nitrogen Uptake of Fodder Beet (Beta vulgaris L.) Crops Grown Under Differing Rates and Timing of Nitrogen Fertiliser in New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Fodder beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is an important forage crop used for cattle wintering in New Zealand. Regional nitrogen (N) fertiliser experiments over two seasons (2016–2018) consisting of different N application rates (0–300 kg N/ha) and times of N application (sowing, canopy closure, and mid‐bulb development stage) were used to validate yield ...

Potential to Improve Nitrogen Fertilizer Use Efficiency and Mitigate Pollution in Tropical Pastures Grazed by Sheep

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
We hypothesize that increasing N application rates will affect N use efficiency (NUE) for lambs grazing warm‐season annual grasses. We evaluated the effect of N fertilizer application rates (50, 100, 200, and 400 kg N/ha) on forage pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.) and animal responses: N balance and NUE per animal and per area basis.

The Effect of Alternative Sheep–Beef Enterprise Mixes on Farm Productivity, Profitability and Predicted Enteric Methane Emissions in North Island Hill Country Farms

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Sheep or beef cattle (cattle) share of total farm feed consumed, measured in stock units (SU) on New Zealand farms, is often adjusted depending on the profitability of each enterprise. The impact of these adjustments on whole‐farm productivity, profitability and predicted methane (CH4) output has not been recently explored. A system dynamics model of a
