1. Assessment Of Enhanced Efficiency Urea Products On Maize In MissouriUrea is the most commonly used N fertilizer worldwide, but can be easily lost to the environment through ammonia volatilization. Enhanced efficiency fertilizers (EEF) have been developed to help prevent these losses. Field studies were conducted from 2009 to 2011 on a Mexico silt loam (fine, smectitic, mesic, Vertic Epiaqualf) to determine the efficacy of five EEF urea products compare to untreated urea when surface applied to no-till maize (Zea mays L.). Treatments included untreated urea, Agrotain,... |
2. Carbon Credit and Sequestration in Agroecosystems; Lessons from Trials in Southern IllinoisA carbon (C) credit is the attribution of net CO2-C equivalent which can be used to decrease climate forcing through a given practice or farming system for a given unit time. Carbon credits allow industries to purchase C that is produced on a farm (i.e., offsets). Carbon can be captured in two ways; (i) by capturing and reducing greenhouse gasses (on a CO2-C equivalent basis), and/or (ii) by increasing soil organic C stocks. Therefore, to enable C credits in the agricultural... A. Sadeghpour, A.M. Weidhuner, G. Burkett, O. Zandvakili, O. Adeyemi, C. Kula, J. Berberich, J. Pike, A.J. Margenot |
