Fall‐applied manure can conserve excess soil‐profile inorganic‐N for the subsequent cropping year
Journal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.Abstract To investigate dairy manure urea fertilizer interactions in cropped soils of the semiarid‐West, we fall‐applied and incorporated (0–0.3 m) soil urea‐N (FertN) rates of 10 (N0), 45 (N1), and 80 mg N kg−1 (N2), co‐applied with either no manure or 86 Mg ha−1 (dry wt.) stockpiled dairy manure.

Testing Wisconsin P index assessments across cropping systems
Journal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.Abstract Managing agricultural runoff phosphorus (P) often requires understanding management effects on both dissolved P (DP) and particulate (sediment‐bound) P (PP). The Wisconsin P index (WPI) allows producers to assess land management effects on runoff P by estimating annual P losses in mass per unit area.

Taro leaf and stylo forage as protein sources for pigs in Laos [PDF]
, 2012 Existing forage plants may have applications as alternative protein resources for pigs in smallholder farming systems. This thesis examined the effect of harvesting/defoliation interval on the yield and chemical composition of taro leaves and stylo ...

, 2011 Inoculants are silage additives containing lactic acid bacteria (e.g. Lactobacillus plantarum, other lactobacilli, pediococci or Enterococcus faecium) that help to improve fermentation (production of lactic acid) in the silo. Inoculants bacteria are usually selected from epiphytic microflora or other environments.

South African Journal of Animal Science, 2011 This study evaluated the effects of ensiling whole-crop maize with bacterial inoculants, Lactococcus lactis (LL) and Lactobacillus buchneri (LB), on the fermentation and nutrient digestibility in rams. Whole-crop maize (265 DM g/kg) was ensiled for 90 days in 210 L drums with no additive, or with LL or LB.

Corn Stover Silage versus Corn Silage for Milk Production [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 1921 The information available on the feeding value of corn stover silage is limited and no experimental data has been reported comparing corn stover silage, made from cured corn stalks, with corn silage, as feeds for milk production. Rusk, of the Illinois Experiment Station, successfully maintained breeding beef cows through the winter on corn stover ...

Carbon footprint for farms in the Czech Republic: a benchmark‐based assessment
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change is a pressing environmental and social challenge that demands effective monitoring of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. One widely adopted approach for this is quantifying the carbon footprint (CF). Given that agriculture is a major contributor to GHG emissions, we have developed a comprehensive framework for CF ...
