1. Comparison of Soil Properties under Long-Term Crop Rotation and TillageShifts in cropping systems from long-term rotations including forages to mostly annual crops has intensified tillage, but has also led to the development of conservation tillage practices such as no-till. There is a shortage of information about the interactive, long-term effects of rotation and tillage on soil quality. The objective of this study was to assess soil chemical and physical properties after 15 years of crop rotation and tillage treatments. Continuous corn (Zea mays L.) (CCC), corn-soybean... |
2. Effects of Soil Test, Tillage, and Manure and Fertilizer Application Method on Phosphorus RunoffLoss of phosphorus from agricultural lands into surface waters is of growing environmental concein. Phosphorus transported by surface runoff often ends up in streams and lakes and accelerates eutrophication, which affects the ability to use the water for drinking, fishing. recreation. etc (Foy and Withers, 1995). The niajor mechanisms by which agriculture contributes phosphorus to surface water is through runoff and erosion (Sharpley et al., 1994). Controlling run~ff and erosion from agricultural... |
3. Phosphorus Runoff From Incorporated and Surface-Applied Fertilizer and ManureContinued inputs of fertiher and manure in excess of crop requirements have led to a build-up of soil phosphorus (I?) levels, creating an environmental rather than agronomic concern (Sharpley et al., 1994). The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of soil test P level, source of P amendments, tillage, and manure application method on P runoff from agricultural soils. The treatments consisted of swine manure surface applied and injected at rates of 29 and 59 Ib acre-' of P, and triple... |
4. Does Nitrogen Management in Winter Wheat Affects Its Yield and Nitrate-N Leaching in a Wheat-Soybean Double Cropping System?Conventional corn (Zea mays L.)-soybean (Glycine max L.) rotation contributes to nitrate-N and phosphate leaching to waterbodies causing water quality concerns. Two strategies that could minimize N and P losses include (i) incorporating winter rye (Secale cereale L.) (WR) as a cover crop to capture residual nutrients or (ii) intensifying the corn-soybean rotation with winter wheat (WW) (Triticum aestivum L.) (Double cropping). Double cropping WW at a right N...

5. Short Term Effect of Double Cropping and Cover Cropping on Soil Physical PropertiesIntegrating cover crops into corn (Zea mays L.)-soybean (Glycine max L.) rotation has been promoted as a sustainable practice to reduce soil erosion, enhance soil health, and improve agricultural sustainability. However, growers are less inclined to include cover crops into their cash crop rotations especially winter cereals such as winter rye (Secale cereale L.) behind corn. One strategy to minimize the fallow period in corn-soybean rotation is by intensifying the corn-soybean... F. Sheikhi Shahrivar, O. Ola, O. Guzel, K. Gage, K. Williard, J. Schoonover, S. Mueller, A.

6. The Effect of Nitrogen Management in Winter Wheat on Nitrous Oxide Emissions in a Wheat-Soybean Double Cropping SystemNitrogen fertilizer management plays a critical role in nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions in agricultural production systems. This study investigated the impact of nitrogen application in a winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)-soybean (Glycine max L.) double cropping system on winter wheat biomass production, grain yield, and N₂O emissions. The experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Research Center (ARC), Carbondale in Southern Illinois University, IL using a Randomized Complete... O. Ola, O. Guzel, K. Gage, K. Williard, J.

7. Improving Corn Grain Yield and Reducing Nitrate-N Leaching with Urease and Nitrification InhibitorsSustainable corn (Zea mays L.) production requires proper nitrogen (N) management to optimize yield and minimize negative impacts of N losses on water quality. Nitrification inhibitors could be a viable strategy to synchronize N availability and corn N demand and decrease N loss through nitrate-N leaching. A field study was laid out in a randomized complete block design with five replicates at the Belleville Research Center (2023-24) and the Agronomy Research Center (2024-25), IL, with... S. Koduru, O.

8. Influence of Nitrogen Fertilization Frequency and Rate on Nitrous Oxide Emissions in Winter WheatManaging nitrogen (N) fertilizer effectively is important for reducing nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions in farming systems. This study examined the effect of N application frequency and rate on winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain yield, total N₂O emissions, and yield-scaled N₂O emissions. The experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Research Center (ARC), Southern Illinois University, Carbondale. A randomized complete block design (RCBD) was used with... O. Ola, O. Guzel, K. Gage, K.
