While they may improve cash crop yield stability and resilience in the long term, cover crops incur seed, planting, termination, and labor costs to farmers while providing little to no short-term revenue. Short growing seasons and harsh winters in many regions make cover crop establishment difficult, resulting in persistent questions about their conservation efficacy and economic feasibility. Row crop farmers with livestock may graze cover crops to defray feed costs, but this increases the importance of cover crop establishment and biomass accumulation. We worked with four farmers in south-central Wisconsin to assess short-term ecological and economic dimensions of rotational grazing of cover crops and to demonstrate “real world” risks in Wisconsin row crop systems. Rotational grazing of cover crops in row crop operations did not appear to impact sensitive soil health indicators, but it did positively affect each farmer's bottom line in the project's first year. In the project's second year, cover crops did not establish well, and only one farmer had a positive economic benefit from grazing cover crops. Nonetheless, all four farmers are determined to plant and graze cover crops in future years.

This rotation is profitable and can reduce costs and boost wheat yields. Both legumes and canola have concerning agronomic attributes, such as poor weed competitiveness and the need for additional nitrogen inputs. Intercropping a legume with canola is an attractive option for decreasing inputs and boosting yields. This study reports a 3-year trial in which canola, peas, and chickpeas were grown solely and intercropped (chickpeas/canola and peas/canola). Each treatment was followed by winter wheat. Land equivalency ratios showed moderate overyielding for chickpea/canola (1.15, <i>p </i>= 0.02) and pea/canola (1.14, <i>p </i>= 0.06) intercrops. Canola was the dominant contributor to yield when grown with chickpeas, and peas were more predominant than canola. Analysis of yield components showed that chickpeas grew taller and had fewer branches in the intercrop, suggesting higher plant populations of this species could increase yields due to their smaller size in intercropped conditions. Soil water loss from each treatment was measured at a shallow (0–70 cm) and a deep (70–130 cm) soil depth. Measurements of soil water consumption revealed that sole-cropped peas used the least water, and water consumption ended earlier than other crop treatments. Chickpeas used the most water at a shallow soil depth. Chickpea and canola intercrops depleted more water at the deep soil depth. Intercropping canola with a grain legume increased soil water consumption deeper in the profile compared to the legume alone.

Using common image processing methods involving thresholding and particle analysis, higher circularity of the shoot convex hull vertical profile was found to correlate with high seed yield (number and grams per plant) in both an indeterminate cultivar (P49T80R) and in a determinate cultivar (Glenn). These soybean cultivars achieved high yields using different growth and production strategies. Glenn had a smaller shoot but exhibited a high pod density phenotype throughout its canopy (PT1, where PT stands for phenotype), while P49T80R achieved high yield through a combination of increased height and greater branching width, which compensated for lower pod density in its branches (PT2). We trained a deep machine learning model to automate shoot phenotyping using nearly 400 images of soybean shoots.

This study evaluated novel barley genotypes across five Iranian locations during the 2022–2024 cropping seasons, assessing traits such as days to heading, maturity, grain-filling period, plant height, 1000-kernel weight, and grain yield. Combined analysis of variance revealed significant effects of genotype (G), environment (E), and GEI. Substantial phenotypic variation was observed across genotypes. The additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) model partitioned GEI into six interaction principal component axes (IPCA). Based on IPCA1 scores and mean yield, genotypes G1, G2, G3, and G5 were identified as both high-yielding and stable. The AMMI-based stability metrics and best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) identified genotypes G14 and G16 as the most stable, with broad adaptability across environments. These findings were reinforced by complementary metrics integrating AMMI and BLUP: weighted average of absolute scores and yield balance, and weighted average of absolute scores and yield scenarios. The genotype plus genotype-by-environment biplot analysis defined three mega-environments in Iran's barley-growing regions—Gonbad (north), Ahvaz, and Darab (south)—highlighting key targets for breeding efforts. Genotype G3 showed strong performance in the northern environment, while G4 was better adapted to southern conditions. Genotypes G14 and G16, due to their consistent performance across sites, are recommended for cultivation under variable or harsh climatic conditions. These insights support targeted selection and breeding of barley varieties adapted to Iran's diverse agroecological zones.</p>","PeriodicalId":7567,"journal":{"name":"Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment","volume":"8 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://acsess.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/agg2.70205","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144927634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this gap, soil health changes were monitored under two fields that underwent a furrow-to-sprinkler transition: one field at a university research station and the other a producer-managed field. Soil samples were collected at the top and bottom of each field in the first year and 1–4 years after the conversion. Soil health was assessed using the Soil Management Assessment Framework, a scoring tool for 10 soil health characteristics that indicate physical, biological, chemical, and nutrient soil health. Results showed that conversion to sprinkler irrigation marginally improved soil health, though salinity concerns emerged at the research field (an increase from ∼0.48 ds/m to ∼1.7 ds/m over 4 years). There was some limited evidence of homogenization of soil health during the transition to sprinkler irrigation. At the research field, soil organic carbon began as highly uneven from the top to the bottom of the field (1.54% and 1.08%, respectively), but became more evenly distributed (1.39% and 1.68%, respectively) after 5 years of sprinkler irrigation. Spatial homogenization should be viewed as a soil health improvement as it simplifies decisions relating to nutrient and irrigation management and helps farmers to predict yields across the field. Consequently, converting from furrow to sprinkler irrigation may help producers more easily manage homogenized fields due to on-site soil health improvements.</p>","PeriodicalId":7567,"journal":{"name":"Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment","volume":"8 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://acsess.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/agg2.70207","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144914886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
