Optimizing Strip-Till and No-Till Systems for Corn
Recent developments in biofuel demand and the rapid adoption of modern transgenic hybrids are changing production systems towards more corn after corn, more intensive tillage, higher plant populations, and ever higher crop residue levels at harvest. Meeting society’s needs for food, feed, and fuel from grain corn, and in the future from corn stover, requires continued refinement of tillage syst...
متن کاملNo-till Farming and the Environment
or no-till. Those who oppose this notion argue that no-till is equated with an abusively high use of herbicides and even genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are synonymous with unsustainable agriculture, with no-till taking all the blame. Unfortunately, both sides are right, and therefore, to get closer to the answer of the initial question, we have to take a deeper look into no-tillage syste...
متن کاملPrevious Corn Row Effects on Potassium Nutrition and Yield of Subsequent No-Till Soybeans
Narrow-row soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] production in corn [Zea mays L.]–soybean rotations results in various distances of soybean rows from previous corn rows, yet little is known about soybean responses to proximity to prior corn rows in no-till systems. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impacts of preceding corn rows on potassium (K) nutrition and yield of subsequent no-til...
متن کاملMaize ARGOS1 (ZAR1) transgenic alleles increase hybrid maize yield
Crop improvement for yield and drought tolerance is challenging due to the complex genetic nature of these traits and environmental dependencies. This study reports that transgenic over-expression of Zea mays AR GOS1 (ZAR1) enhanced maize organ growth, grain yield, and drought-stress tolerance. The ZAR1 transgene exhibited environmental interactions, with yield increase under Temperate Dry and ...
متن کاملAn evaluation of yield in "intercropping of maize and potato"
Abstract To find out how maize and potato can grow and develop in an intercropping system rather than each grown alone in a sole cropping system the following factorial experiment was performend in the frame-work of a randomized complete block three replications in the experimental farm of the faculty of agriculture, Zanjan University in year 2004. Different potato to maize ratios of (1:0), i...
