The book is available for purchase from Wiley.com or Amazon.com. The article covers the use of electromagnetic (EM) sensors for measuring apparent electrical conductivity (EC<sub>a</sub>). In the field, electrical conductivity (EC) can be measured by two primary approaches: physical contact and electromagnetic (EM) induction. With physical contact, a current is injected into the soil, and the detector measures the resulting voltage. An EM meter does not make direct contact but uses a coil to produce an EM field. A sensor then measures the soil-induced changes to the original EM field. Both types of sensors measure the EC<sub>a</sub>, which is different from laboratory-derived EC values. When using EC<sub>a</sub> sensors, it is important to remember that they are sensitive to many factors, including salinity, soil moisture, bulk density, soil texture, and temperature. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview on the use of EM sensors to provide examples on the use of these sensors in the field.

Historically, most of the black-eyed pea grown for grain has been in California. As water availability declined in the region, production shifted to Texas in the 1990s and to Arizona in the early 2000s. The pulse-crop-producing regions of Nebraska, Kansas, and Colorado have seen an increase in black-eyed pea acreage over the past nine years as an effort to maintain U.S. production levels. Black-eyed pea is a suitable cash crop legume to enhance the dryland cropping rotations. What once was a crop grown on irrigated acres in the arid West has been found to flourish on the dryland and limited-irrigation acres of the High Plains.

Given this value, it is important for wheat producers to weigh the relative benefits of residue harvest, which gives immediate but marginal revenue gains, and residue retention, which has multifaceted benefits that include substantial savings on future nutrient costs. Persistent removal of nutrients from agronomic systems through residue harvest affects soil nutrient availability in the short- and long-term, and the timing and magnitude of these changes will depend on the cropping system and soil.

In northern climates, there are significant challenges to establishing cover crops due to the short growing window following corn silage harvest.

Due to current conflict in the major wheat-growing region of Ukraine and Russia and recent droughts, record decline in world wheat stocks was expected. To further understand winter wheat’s contribution to the economy, production trends, and relationship with climate variability, data available in the state of Kansas through annual winter wheat yield trials and USDA reports were used to study winter wheat historic trends and relations.
