This study examined whether less frequent cultivation for weed control and the application of carbon-rich soil fertility amendments would enable progress toward those goals during the 3-year transition period to organic production. Standard weed control with cultivation was compared to high-frequency cultivation combined with delayed planting. The standard approach produced 7% higher crop yield over the course of a corn (Zea mays L.)–soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]–small grain rotation, likely due in part to earlier corn and soybean planting. In-field weed counts and weed seedbank germination showed weed populations tended to be lower in the high-frequency cultivation treatment, although patterns were crop specific. Weed populations increased over the 3 years in all treatments, suggesting that additional weed control tactics may have been beneficial. Carbon-rich poultry manure had no significant effects on weed populations, soil health, or crop yield compared to an N-rich organic fertilizer. However, crop yields were positively related to soil health indicators, specifically greater soil total carbon and nitrogen and permanganate oxidizable carbon. The standard weed control approach was advantageous during the organic transition period, but the observed increase in weed populations might become problematic in future years of organic production.","PeriodicalId":7522,"journal":{"name":"Agronomy Journal","volume":"117 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143638667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has enabled us to categorize the various works on soil fertility in Benin palm plantations into three categories, which include works on the management of organic matter, works on the association of oil palm with annual food crops, and works on the management of mineral fertilization. From all these studies, apart from climatic factors, the major constraint affecting oil palm production is potassium (K) deficiency. But boron (B) is also mentioned in the scientific literature as a parameter requiring particular attention, whose deficiency leads, in addition to K, to enormous production losses. It would therefore be advisable to direct future research toward alternatives that take into account climatic variability and the mineral nutrition of oil palm in K and magnesium (Mg), while ensuring good management of soil organic matter to ensure the sustainability of oil palm-based production systems.","PeriodicalId":7522,"journal":{"name":"Agronomy Journal","volume":"117 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143565168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study was part of a long-term experiment in Pisa, Italy, comparing crop performance in a 5-year rainfed rotation (i.e., sugar beet [Beta vulgaris L. var. saccharifera] or maize [Zea mays L.] followed by common wheat [T. aestivum L. subsp. aestivum emend.

Durum wheat yields were 37% lower under ORG compared to CON on average, though similar yields were produced across the two systems during one of the 5-year cycles. There was a significant interaction between MS and climatic conditions for yield and yield components. A lower number of spikes per m2 was observed in ORG wheat compared to CON, thus spotlighting on likely different soil N availability in the two MS at the double ridge stage. ORG management resulted in weed biomass increases over time, with 400% higher weed biomass under ORG by the end of the research period.

This study aimed to determine the effects of faba bean intercrops with wheat varieties at different seeding rates on grain yield, economic revenue, and land-use efficiency.

Sole cropping of each wheat variety and faba bean at the recommended seeding rates served as controls. Faba bean intercropped with the wheat HAR 2501 variety at a 75% seeding rate increased the total grain yield, economic revenue, and land equivalent ratio (LER) by 39%, 17%, and 50%, respectively, over the sole faba bean.

Spatial variability in weed densities, emergence timing, weed seed production, seed viability, herbicide bioavailability, and other factors complicate weed management strategies in eroded landscapes. Reversing soil erosion by replacing translocated topsoil (soil-landscape rehabilitation) is one method to improve crop productivity of severely eroded land, but bulk soil movement changes soil properties and weed seedbanks that influence weed spatial distribution patterns, emergence, and growth. We evaluated weed community responses to soil movement within a hilly landform. Soil-landscape rehabilitation was performed by moving 15–20 cm of accumulated topsoil from the lower slope and adding it to the upper slope positions (areas of net soil loss by erosion). Adjacent plots were left in their eroded condition. Weed density and species richness were monitored for 4 years. Annual grasses dominated the weed community in the upper slope, and weed abundance was highest in the most eroded landscape positions. Soil addition improved soil characteristics for crop growth but did not increase weed densities. The density of weeds was lower where soil was removed in the first 2 years after soil movement, likely through removal of weed seeds with soil. Within 3 years of soil movement, weed abundance and species richness were the same or lower in areas of soil removal and no soil removal. In these experiments, movement of soil (and entrained weed seeds) within an eroded landform to improve productivity did not exacerbate weed issues.","PeriodicalId":7522,"journal":{"name":"Agronomy Journal","volume":"117 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/agj2.70029","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143497062","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}

We conducted research over seven growing seasons at two Kentucky sites collecting spatially dense yield response data from over 150 paired plots per field. Mehlich 3 extractable phosphorus (M3P) soil ranged from 0.8 to 63 mg kg−1, with 96% of sample points falling below the University of Kentucky's fertilizer cutoff of 30 mg kg−1 M3P for corn. Each plot (10−2 ha) received 0 or 29.5 kg ha−1 P. While M3P effectively predicted average field-level response, with yield increases in five of seven site-years, it failed to predict subfield responses, where only 51% of plots showed positive yield response to P application. Linear plateau models revealed that conventional statistical treatments of soil test correlation data mask important subfield variability. The poor relationship between soil test P and yield response at the subfield scale suggests that variable rate P management requires incorporating additional factors beyond soil P concentration or moving away from such deterministic models toward probabilistic models. Our findings demonstrate that while current soil test recommendations provide accurate field-scale guidance, they lack the precision required for variable rate application.","PeriodicalId":7522,"journal":{"name":"Agronomy Journal","volume":"117 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/agj2.70028","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143475782","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}

A retrospective analysis of MET data spanning 63 locations between 1989 and 2019 was conducted to identify mega-environments (ME) for soybean seed yield in the primary production areas of North America. ME were identified using data from phenotypic values, geographic, soil, and meteorological records at the trial locations. Results indicate that yield variation was mostly explained by location and location by year interaction. The phenotypic variation due to genotype by location interaction effects was greater than genotype by year interaction effects. The static portion of the genotype by environment interaction variance represented 26.30% of its total variation. The observed locations sampled from the target population of environments can be divided into two or three ME, thereby suggesting that improvements in the response to selection can be achieved when selecting directly within clusters (i.e., regions and ME) versus selecting across all locations.

Over three growing seasons (2021, 2022, and 2023), soil temperature, moisture, N2O-N and CO2-C emissions were measured six times per day from when the urea was applied to harvest. N2O-N and CO2-C emissions were separated into pre-split and post-split periods, and carbon dioxide equivalence was calculated. Splitting the N rate: (1) increased N2O-N emissions in 2021 and 2022; (2) reduced CO2-C emissions during the post-split period in 2022 and 2023; and (3) did not influence total CO2e in 2021 and reduced CO2e emissions in 2022 and 2023.
