Synthetic gypsum, a by-product of electricity generation, is used as a soil amendment to overcome water ponding, improve soil and water quality, improve field conditions to support farm equipment, and reduce the variability of crop yield... more
Soil sampling to the depth of plant root growth is an effective practice that may reduce fertilizer applications and the potential for leaching loss to groundwater. The objective of this study was to compare the utility of a power auger... more
Abstract. The fatty acid methyl esters of lipids extracted from an agricultural soil in the preharvest period of soybean or middle growth cycle from wheat were characterized and quantified by gas-liquid chromatography. The fatty acids... more
Corn (Zea mays L.) was grown on a deep, well drained silt loam soil (Aridic Argiustolls) at Colby, Kansas, from 2004 to 2007 using three plant densities (66,300, 74,500, or 82,300 plants /ha) under conventional, strip, or no tillage... more
Abstract Synthetic gypsum, a by-product of electricity generation, is used as a soil amendment to overcome water ponding, improve soil and water quality, improve field conditions to support farm equipment, and reduce the variability of... more
ABSTRACT: Pruning of lateral tree roots that grow from a windbreak outward into an adjacent crop field can increase crop yields by reducing root competition. Two studies were conducted on Boelus-Loretto complex loamy fine sand (Udic... more
ABSTRACT Different functional groups of soil arthropodofauna present in the agro-ecosystem can be severely modified by tillage practices. The abundance of different trophic groups subject to conventional tillage (CT) and no tillage (NT)... more
