N supply in stockless organic cereal production under northern temperate conditions. Undersown legumes, or whole-season green manure? [PDF]
Two systems for nitrogen (N) supply to organic spring cereals were compared under Norwegian conditions. Repeated undersowing of clover in the cereals in four growing seasons was compared to a whole-season green manure in the second year.

Forage yields from ryegrass and ryegrass-cereal grain mixtures
During two years of study no increase in pasture production could be obtained by adding barley to ryegrass. Instead, ryegrass yield was depressed the remainder of the growing season. Overall, ryegrass planted alone equalled or was better than the mixtures.

Environmental impacts of grazed clover/grass pastures [PDF]
peer-reviwedGrazed clover/grass pastures are important for animal production systems and the clover component is critical for its contribution to N inputs via biological fixation of atmospheric N2.

The role of earthworms in nitrogen release from herbage residues : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Soil Science at Massey University [PDF]
Decomposition and nutrient release from pasture litter were examined in two biotic systems; either with or without large organisms ("macrobes"). Earthworms were the test macrobe and nitrogen (N) the test nutrient. This experiment addressed the hypothesis

A provisional assessment of risk associated with heavy metal accumulation in New Zealand agricultural soil: Effects of landfarming and fertiliser use on the heavy metal concentrations in plants : A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Environmental Management (without major) at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand [PDF]
This study investigated heavy metal accumulation in New Zealand agricultural soil (horticultural soil and landfarm-impacted soil), factors influencing their concentration in leafy vegetables and pasture, and the potential implications to food safety ...

Glyphosate resistance in annual ryegrass (Lolium rigidum Gaud.) with multiple resistance mechanisms. [PDF]
Glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine) is a post-emergent, systemic and non-selective herbicide for the control of annual and perennial weeds. This herbicide has very low toxicity to the mammals.
