Optimizing maize–bean cropping systems for sustainable intensification in southern Ethiopia

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3283-3296, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Declining productivity and scarcity of cultivable land in smallholder systems call for exploring sustainable intensification options to increase productivity. Field experiments were conducted at five sites (Sites 1–5) of the Sidama region, southern Ethiopia, in 2018 and 2019 to determine the effects of cropping systems on maize (Zea mays L ...

Cover crops affect soybean yield components, but not grain quality

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3193-3205, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Cover cropping is mainly used to prevent soil erosion, but the effects of individual cover crops on the subsequent soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] are hardly known. Therefore, two annual field trials with 15 cover crop species and bare fallow as control were conducted in semi‐arid East Austria in 2016 and 2017.

Exergoenvironmental damages assessment in a desert‐based agricultural system: A case study of date production

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3155-3172, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Developing countries, especially those in hot and dry areas, need more attention to achieve sustainable development as they apply excessive inputs in production processes. The present study aims to quantify the amount of environmental emissions and determine the most appropriate pattern of energy use in the date (Phoenix dactylifera L ...

Can soil biology tests improve phosphorus and potassium corn fertilizer recommendations?

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3457-3472, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Integrating soil health (SH) biological properties with soil fertility (SF) evaluations offers a unique opportunity to potentially refine fertilizer recommendations. The objectives of this research included: (a) evaluating current University of Missouri P and K fertilizer recommendations for corn (Zea mays L.) and (b) assess whether SH ...

Maize–soybean intercropping: A bibliometric analysis of 30 years of research publications

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3377-3388, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Maize (Zea may L.)–soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] intercropping is popular in many countries because of its high productivity. However, no studies have explored maize–soybean intercropping via bibliometric methods. Taking the Web of Science database, the visualization applications of CiteSpace and VOSviewer were used to visually analyze the ...

Replacing fallow with field pea in wheat production systems across western Nebraska

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3329-3346, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Integration of field pea (Pisum sativum L.) (FP) into dryland cropping systems has increased due to ecological and economic benefits, paired with a growing market for pea‐derived products. Challenges exist in the High Plains that limit the integration of crop rotations to replace fallow periods with FP in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)‐based ...

Does agroecosystem management mitigate historic climate impacts on dryland winter wheat yields?

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3515-3530, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Global studies that quantify climate effects on crop yields using top‐down spatial frameworks are invaluable for assessing generalized effects on world food supplies, yet do not contain the resolution necessary to identify local mediating effects of management. Our objectives were to identify (a) what climate factors have historically affected

Yield estimation of summer maize based on multi‐source remote‐sensing data

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3389-3406, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Accurately estimating regional‐scale crop yields is substantial in determining current agricultural production performance and effective agricultural land management. The Yuncheng Basin is an important grain‐producing area in the Shanxi Province. This paper used Sentinel 2A with a spatial resolution of 10 m and MODIS with a temporal resolution

Profit‐maximizing potassium fertilizer recommendations for corn and cotton

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3358-3376, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Whereas K fertilization is necessary to maximize corn (Zea mays L.) and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) yields in soils with sub‐optimum K availability, maximizing yield is rarely profit‐maximizing. Estimating the tradeoff between yield and fertilizer cost using current soil‐building and/or yield‐maximizing rate recommendations vs.

Performance of turf‐type bermudagrass cultivars in the upper and lower limits of the European transition zone

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3544-3553, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] is one of the most widely cultivated turfgrass species throughout the world. It has several important attributes, such as heat and drought tolerance, and one big disadvantage, which is susceptibility to cold temperatures.
