1. Impact of Biofuel Crops on U.S. Agriculture: An OverviewBiofuel crops are having an impact on prices of commodities, land use, and environmental factors such as water quality, biod iversity, etc. There are critical linkages today that result in the phenomenon of oil and corn prices moving in lockstep. We also see that limited cropland leads to tradeoffs between different crops that aff ect not only food and feed production, current corn based biofuel production but also future cellulosic production. The current and potential impact of biofuels on the... |
2. Manure Total Nitrogen Variability Due to Analytical Method and Total Solids ContentKnowing the nutrient analysis of a fertilizer source is essential to ensure adequate nutrients for crop growth, while not causing potential environmental impacts by overapplying nutrients. Using manure as a nutrient source can complicate matters as the nutrient content can be variable and the manure can come in a range of liquid to solid consistencies. There are multiple laboratory methods to determine different nutrient parameters and for manure total nitrogen levels the most common methods... N.L. Bohl bormann, M.L. Wilson, E.L. Cortus, J.
