Does rotational bale grazing affect the distribution of soil nutrients across pastures?
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Rotational bale grazing (RBG), the strategic feeding of round hay bales directly on pasture with controlled access, offers an alternative to continuous winter hay feeding in a single paddock. This study evaluated RBG's potential to redistribute nutrients by increasing soil concentrations in field areas with lower phosphorus (P) and potassium ...

Seasonal Distribution of Forage Yield and Winter Hardiness of Grasses from Diverse Latitudinal Origins Harvested Four Times Per Year in Southcentral Alaska [PDF]
, 1992 Relatively short growing seasons at subarctic latitudes require maximum efficiencies in production of forages during the brief growing period. This is necessary to provide adequately for livestock feeding requirements both during the growing season ...

Chemical control strategies for Poa annua in managed turfgrass systems
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Poa annua L. is a widespread and persistent weed in managed turfgrass systems, exhibiting both annual and short‐lived perennial growth habits. Effective management requires an integrated approach, with chemical herbicides remaining a primary tool.

De Novo Assembly and Characterization of Tall Fescue Transcriptome under Water Stress
The Plant Genome, 2015 Water stress is a fundamental problem for tall fescue [ (Schreb.) Darbysh.] cultivation in the south–central United States. Genetic improvement of tall fescue for water-stress tolerance is the key strategy for improving its persistence in the region ...

Peanut response following soybean grown full‐season or double‐cropped after wheat in North Carolina
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Including soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] in the previous cropping cycle can adversely affect peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) yield by increasing disease incidence and populations of plant‐parasitic nematodes in the soil. The impact of double‐cropping wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and soybean versus full‐season soybean (referred to as the soybean

Seed production of tall fescue and other cool season grasses (1995) [PDF]
, 1995 Most of the fescue harvested for seed in Missouri is used for fall and winter grazing. This is an excellent way to maximize the total fescue crop, but often results in seed yields that are lower than would be expected if fescue is managed primarily for ...

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Seed moisture content (SMC) is the most reliable indicator of seed maturity and the optimal harvest timing in grass seed crops. Current SMC testing methodologies used in grass seed crops are slow or inaccurate, making it difficult to make timely harvest decisions.

Evaluation of Electrocution for Weed Control and Tall Fescue Seedhead Reduction in Missouri Pastures
Weed TechnologyDespite its efficacy, little research has been conducted to evaluate the potential for electrocution to control common weeds in pastures. Electrocution could also potentially be utilized as a management tool to minimize the production of tall fescue ...
