Cocoa byproduct in diets for dairy heifers
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of substituting Tifton 85 hay (Cynodon sp. cv. Tifton 85) with levels of cocoa (Theobroma cacao) byproduct (0, 8, 16, and 24%, diet dry matter basis) in the diet of 16 Holstein × Gir heifers with an average

Passion fruit by-product as a substitute for Tifton 85 hay in diets for dairy heifers
This study was undertaken to examine the intake, nutrient digestibility, protein and energy balance and feeding behavior of dairy heifers fed diets in which Tifton 85 bermuda grass (Cynodon sp) hay was substituted by a passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) by-product. Sixteen Holstein × Zebu crossbred heifers with an average weight of 363.00 ± 27.7 kg were

Installation, repair, retrieval, and economic returns of S3DI systems in corn and cotton rotations
Abstract The use of shallow subsurface drip irrigation (S3DI) systems in row crops can be economically favorable, provided the system remains in the field without major repairs for a substantial period. This research documents installation, repairs, retrieval, and partial economic returns of S3DI systems in service for 4, 5, 6, and 8 years.

An Economic Analysis of Replacing Existing Bermudagrass Stands with Tifton 85 Bermudagrass for Beef Cow-Calf, Stocker and Hay Production [PDF]
Comparisons of simulated NPV for Coastal and Tifton 85 bermuda-grass using experimental data, current input prices and historical hay and feeder cattle prices indicates that many producers would benefit by adopting this new cultivar.

Genomic and Transcriptomic Insights Into Salinity Tolerance in Dry Pea
ABSTRACT Salinity is a major crop production constraint in dry pea (Pisum sativum L.), making the development of salt‐tolerant varieties essential to improve crop productivity and land‐use efficiency. The genetic mechanisms of salt tolerance in dry pea are largely unknown, and research on salt‐tolerant genes is limited.

Abstract Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) breeding has primarily emphasized fiber yield and quality, yet plant architectural, developmental, and seed morphological traits also play key roles in productivity and management. Here, we dissect the genetic basis of four such traits: plant height (HT), number of nodes with one branch (N1B), days to flowering ...

Determining if preemergent herbicide injury on ThryvOn cotton alters management strategies
Abstract Glyphosate‐resistant Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus Palmeri S. Wats.) caused cotton growers to increase the use of preemergence (PRE) herbicides. These herbicides can cause crop injury, which increases the susceptibility window of cotton to thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae).
