Long-term Effects of Tillage on the Retention and Transport of Soil Water [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Quantitative measurements were made of the physical and chemical properties of two virgin prairie soils, Crowley and Jay, that remain in their native Arkansas environments and of similar soils that had been tilled extensively.

Conservation Conundrum: At-risk Bumble Bees (Bombus spp.) Show Preference for Invasive Tufted Vetch (Vicia cracca) While Foraging in Protected Areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In recent decades, some bumble bee species have declined, including in North America. Declines have been reported in species of bumble bees historically present in Ontario, including: yellow bumble bee (Bombus fervidus) (Fabricus, 1798), American bumble ...

Legacy effects of 41 years of tillage and fertilization on biological nitrogen fixation and nutritional status of hairy vetch in a continuous cotton system

open access: yesAgricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Long‐term tillage and nitrogen fertilization in a continuous cotton–cover crop system influenced soil organic matter and nitrogen availability, shaping nitrogen acquisition strategies of a vetch cover crop. Conventional tillage promoted greater reliance on BNF, whereas no‐till systems favored soil‐derived nitrogen uptake and higher legume nitrogen ...

Plant biomass nitrogen and effects on the risk of nitrate leaching of intercrops under organic farming in Eastern Austria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Data on the potential of intercrops to reduce soil nitrate contents, on their N accumulation and biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) are lacking for organic farming in the dry, pannonic region of Eastern Austria.

Lignin composition correlates with pod dehiscence in hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth)

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Farmers and policy makers are increasingly interested in cover cropping to remedy harms caused by annual cash crop systems. However, species used for cover cropping have limited breeding and improvement histories. The objective of this study was to examine seed pod lignin profiles in relation to pod dehiscence (shatter) in the semi ...
