Poorly drained claypan soils can increase the importance of tillage and N management for corn (Zea mays L.) production. Field research in 2008, 2009 and 2010 (high rainfall years) near Novelty, MO (40° 1' N, 92° 11' W) sought to determine the effect of polymer-coated urea (PCU) placement [strip-tillage (ST) deep banded and no-till (NT) broadcast] and application timing (fall, early preplant...

The objective of this study was to explore if more crop-specific plant growth modules can improve simulations of crop yields, and N in tile flow under different management practices compared with a generic plant growth module. We calibrated and evaluated the Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM) with the Decision Support for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT v3.5) plant growth modules (RZWQM–DSSAT...

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of cotton residue incorporation with conservation tillage and integrated nutrient management practices on Bt (Gossypium hirsutum L.) at AICRP Dryland Agriculture farm, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani during kharif 2021-22. Fifteen treatment combinations consisting three (conventional tillage, reduced zero tillage) fiv...

Soil N2O emissions from three corn (Zea mays L.)-soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] systems in central Iowa were measured from the spring of 2003 through February 2005. The three managements systems evaluated were full-width tillage (fall chisel plow, spring disk), no-till, and no-till with a rye (Secale cereale L. 'Rymin') winter cover crop. Four replicate plots of each treatment were establishe...

could be optimized using modified NT systems (including ST) and starter fertilizer. In Iowa Mallarino et al. (1999) Utilizing conservation tillage practices and increasing fertilizer N found that ST frequently increased early growth but seluse efficiency for corn (Zea mays L.) are necessary for optimizing dom increased corn grain yields compared with NT. growers’ profits and for minimizing loss...

the winter, chemically terminated in the spring, and then corn is planted into the surface residue. Corn is typically The benefits of winter legumes as cover crops for corn (Zea mays planted early in the growing season, which forces an L.) are diminished by the earliness of corn planting in relation to early termination date. A termination date at least 14 d biomass and N production by the legu...

The research results are related to the problem of enhancing environmental safety technical means in crop production. A object is a tillage machine with standard and innovative dynamic working bodies. aimed comparative ecological assessment efficiency using typical bodies for surface tillage. scientific novelty represented by regularities changes resistivity per unit active frontal area investi...

Soil organic carbon (SOC) and nitrogen (N) are directly influenced by tillage, residue return and N fertilization management practices. Soil samples for SOC and N analyses, obtained from a 23-year field experiment, provided an assessment of nearequilibrium SOC and N conditions. Crops included corn (Zea mays L.) and soybean [Glycine max L. (Merrill)]. Treatments of conventional and conservation ...

Tillage practices significantly influences soil physical characteristics and crop productivity. The infiltration characteristics, bulk density, porosity, penetration resistance, grain yield of rice and wheat were measured under no-till without residue (NT), roto-tillage (RT), and no-till with residue i.e. happy seeder (HS) in rice-wheat cropping system in sandy loam (SL) and loamy sand (LS) soi...
