Sources of nitrogen for winter wheat in organic cropping systems [PDF]
In organic cropping systems, legumes, cover crops, residue incorporation, and manure application are used to maintain soil fertility, but the contributions of these management practices to soil nitrogen (N) supply remain obscure.

Soil health and community well‐being: A framework of intangible outcomes of sustainable agriculture
Abstract Social outcomes of agricultural practice adoption are often excluded from adoption studies, particularly outcomes related to community well‐being. In large part, this is because assessing the social well‐being outcomes of sustainable agricultural practices lacks a widely accepted framework.

The Effects of Topdressing Organic Nitrogen on Hard Red Winter Wheat [PDF]
The demand for local organic food is steadily increasing throughout Vermont and New England. Consumers are asking for bread baked with locally grown wheat; however, bakers have been slow to incorporate local wheat flour because of the challenges ...

Abstract Rice (Oryza sativa L.) production in California follows a norm of mono‐cropping with little to no rotations or fallows. Both winter droughts, which lead to water restrictions, and spring rains, which inhibit field machinery operations, have resulted in increased fallow frequencies, where no crop is grown during the summer growing season.

The efficiency of a durum wheat-winter pea intercrop to improve yield and wheat grain protein concentration depends on N availability during early growth [PDF]
Grain protein concentration of durum wheat is often too low, particularly in low-N-input systems. The aim of our study was to test whether a durum wheat - winter pea intercrop can improve relative yield and durum wheat grain protein concentration in low ...

Are historical trends in weather consistent with model predictions in the Central United States?
Abstract Model projections predict increasing temperatures and precipitation change in many locations in the Central United States. To provide perspective on what these trends might bring relative to what has already happened, we compared historical temperature and precipitation change with what models from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project ...

Elasticities for U.S. Wheat Food Use by Class [PDF]
We conceptualize wheat for food use as an input into flour production and derive demand functions to quantify price responsiveness and economic substitutability across wheat classes.
