Processed manures sustain silage corn yield with amendment‐specific soil and forage response

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract In semiarid western US dairy systems, field evidence remains limited on whether processed manure products can sustain silage corn (Zea mays L.) productivity and improve soil health. A field experiment conducted in Logan, UT, during 2021–2022 compared compost, vermicompost, Sedron (a thermally and mechanically processed dairy manure), dissolved

Compost Politics: Experimenting with Togetherness in Vermicomposting [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Humanities, 2014
AbstractEmerging from the question of how to live together with our planet, more-than-human approaches to interspecies relations have often presented ‘cozy’ versions of conviviality (Whatmore 2002; Haraway 2008; Hinchliffe 2010). This was usually set against a (supposedly) exclusionary politics of nature, in a move that betrayed a still largely ...

From Reactive Remediation to Predictive Prevention: A Systems Synthesis of Global Soil Salinization and Sodicity

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.
Salty soils are spreading across the world's farmland, often building up unnoticed for years before crop yields fall sharply and repair becomes slow and costly. Our review shows that this damage comes from linked problems in soil chemistry, water management, and policy, so fixing any one of them alone rarely works.
