The region is well-suited for small grain production, and there is a strong market for organic food products on the US West Coast. However, many growers encounter significant and persistent challenges with weed management, particularly management of perennial weeds such as Canada thistle [<i>Cirsium arvense</i> (L.) Scop.] and field bindweed (<i>Convolvulus arvensis</i> L.), but also common winter and spring annual grass weeds including cheatgrass (<i>Bromus tectorum</i> L.) and wild oat (<i>Avena fatua</i> L.). Coupled with the need to minimize soil disturbance, weed management can become nearly intractable and production limiting. From 2004 to 2024, several short and intermediate studies have been conducted to assess weed control tactics and crop rotation effects on weed management. Lessons learned include incorporating alfalfa (<i>Medicago sativa</i> L.) and spring barley (<i>Hordeum vulgare</i> L.) into rotations for suppression of field bindweed, or alfalfa and winter triticale (x <i>Triticosecale</i> Wittmack) for suppression of Canada thistle. Optimization of cultural inputs, particularly seeding rate, are critical for each crop in rotation. Animal integration and new crops such as quinoa (<i>Chenopodium quinoa</i> Willd.) are alternatives to conventional crops and potentially profitable. Incorporation of precision mechanical and chemical systems is feasible in narrow-row cereals, and when combined with crop rotation, it could reduce or eliminate the need for repeated transitions back to convention production for organic growers.</p>","PeriodicalId":7522,"journal":{"name":"Agronomy Journal","volume":"116 6","pages":"2754-2763"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/agj2.21709","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142642398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Alternative biofuel feedstock systems might better address this “food–energy–environment trilemma.” Using data from a 9-ha field experiment in Iowa, we evaluated yields from a 14-year period for four bioenergy feedstock systems: stover harvested from corn grown with and without an unharvested rye cover crop, and prairie vegetation grown with and without fertilizer. We also assessed sub-surface drainage flows and NO<sub>3</sub>-N concentrations and discharges in leachate from those cropping systems. The continuous corn systems produced mean grain yields of 11.0–11.5 Mg ha<sup>−1</sup> year<sup>−1</sup>, while also yielding about 4 Mg ha<sup>−1</sup> year<sup>−1</sup> of stover. Mean harvested biomass from the fertilized prairie was 83% greater than from the unfertilized prairie and was superior to stover production in the two corn treatments in 11 out of 14 years. Nitrate-N losses in drainage water from the corn systems averaged 12–14 kg NO<sub>3</sub>-N ha<sup>−1</sup> year<sup>−1</sup>, whereas both the fertilized and unfertilized prairie systems almost eliminated NO<sub>3</sub>-N loss. Cover cropping with rye reduced NO<sub>3</sub>-N loss in only one out of 13 years and had variable effects on corn yield. Adoption of prairie-based biofuel systems might be driven by placing perennial feedstocks on environmentally sensitive sub-field areas and by government policies that favor perennial feedstocks over annual crops like corn.</p>","PeriodicalId":7522,"journal":{"name":"Agronomy Journal","volume":"116 6","pages":"3053-3069"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/agj2.21713","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142642145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Network consists of United States Department of Agriculture, university, and International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center scientists (20 people) who manage and collect primary data from LTFEs and a core team (nine people) who organize the network, curate network data, and synthesize cross-network findings. As of 2024, the DRIVES Project database contains 495 site-years of crop yields, daily weather, soil analysis, and management information. The DRIVES database is findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable, which allows integration with other public datasets. Initial research has focused on how rotational diversity impacts resilience in the face of adverse weather, nutritional quality, and economic feasibility.

This trait is influenced by various structural factors, including head weight, stem traits, and plant height. A sunflower head should be at an angle at which the head faces the ground to avoid damage from the sun and birds. While this desired inclination range is known, current methods, including visual estimation and a model of measuring inclined length of the stem, fail to provide precise measurements of angle. This study introduces novel approaches to mathematically measure the head inclination angle. The research, which was conducted over the 2022 and 2023 growing seasons, involved an aluminum rod equipped with a ruler and a digital protractor to measure various height and angle components. Using the data collected, three methods were applied for measuring inclination: a previously published model as a control, a trigonometry-based approach using angle and height measurements, and other model-based approaches. A linear model resulted in a formula to calculate the head angle of any plant based solely on two height measurements, the highest point of the plant at both bloom (R5) and maturity (R9). Calculations of heritability and correlation suggest this method has created a precise alternative to existing estimation methods. The resulting formula has the potential to be paired with measurements from high-throughput phenotyping methods, such as those facilitated with drones and ground robots, to fully automate the process of collecting head inclination data.</p>","PeriodicalId":7522,"journal":{"name":"Agronomy Journal","volume":"116 6","pages":"2783-2790"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/agj2.21708","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142641940","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objectives of this study were to characterize P balances of corn silage fields in New York, their drivers, relationships between P balances and field STP and nitrogen (N) balances, as well as the impact of manure application practices on balances. Field-level balances (supply–uptake) for P and N were derived for 994 field observations across eight dairy farms and 5 years. On average, P balances were low (11 kg P ha<sup>−1</sup>) with a wide range across farm averages (−11 to 30 kg P ha<sup>−1</sup>). Across farms, P was applied at higher rates to fields with adequate STP than to lower STP fields, indicating potential opportunities for reallocation of P within farms. Phosphorus balances were positively related to N balances. Manure nutrient utilization indicated that N-based applications would lead to large positive P balances in all farms. Phosphorus-based manure applications could cover on average 51% of corn N requirements under current farm manure application practices. This could be increased up to 85% when maximizing the utilization of manure inorganic N. Management alternatives to prevent excessive P balances include improving diet formulation to reduce P excretion, reducing animal density, exporting manure, implementing manure treatment technologies that conserve N and/or remove P, combining appropriate rates of manure and fertilizer, and maximizing manure inorganic N utilization in field applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":7522,"journal":{"name":"Agronomy Journal","volume":"116 6","pages":"2990-3006"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/agj2.21710","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142641889","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
