Determination of water content in corn stover silage using near-infrared spectroscopy
International Journal of Agricultural and Biological Engineering, 2019 The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of utilizing near-infrared spectroscopy to determine the water content of corn stover silage across a wide range. The water contents of 208 samples were measured, and their corresponding near-infrared

Brown Mid-Rib Corn Variety Trial [PDF]
, 2013 Brown mid-rib (BMR) corn has a lower lignin content than other silage corn varieties. The lower lignin content increases the fiber digestibility (NDF digestibility) of the corn silage. Increases in NDF digestibility lead to increased in dry matter intake,

The Sources of Slow Declines in Agricultural Nutrient Leakage: Evidence From Sweden
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We apply index decomposition methods to decompose nitrogen and phosphorus leakage trends from Swedish arable land. The results show considerable heterogeneity; changes in nutrient pollution coefficients (kg leakage/SEK of crop value produced) and crop rotations caused leakage to increase in some areas and decrease in others. Crucially, we find
