Abstract:
Feed grain consumption in Virginia and the mid-Atlantic region is more than double the total production. Producing more feed grains in this region could generate more profit for grain growers and lower costs for end-users. Increased feed grain production in this region will necessitate improved corn (Zea mays L.) management techniques and adoption of alternative feed grains such as grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.). In order to achieve our overall objective of increased corn and grain sorghum production in the region, experiments were conducted to assess tools with the ability to increase

Abstract:
Greater projected demand for food, fuel, and fiber will require substantial increases in global agricultural production over the next three decades. Climate change is also forecasted to make weather events more extreme and variable. Efficiency will become more important as demand for food products increases and the availability of fertilizer and land decreases. Technology may be of paramount importance for pushing the boundaries of production while remaining sustainable for generations to come.

Abstract:
Agricultural manipulation of the soil nitrogen (N) cycle has caused a significant increase in nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions during the past five decades. Nitrous oxide is one of the major greenhouse gases with potent and long-lasting global warming effects [298 times higher than carbon dioxide (CO2) over a time period of 100 years]. The major biogenic processes responsible for N2O production in agricultural soils are identified as nitrification which is the oxidation of ammonium (NH4+) to nitrite (NO2-) and nitrate (NO3-) and denitrification that is the anaerobic reduction of NO2- and NO3- to

Abstract:
The primary hypothesis of this research was that improved cowpea genotypes (selected under sole crop) could yield well in several Nigerian cropping systems, and that there were cowpea characteristics that improved overall system productivity. Cowpea lines were identified which were high yielding and stable in several management systems. Practices such as not applying insecticide and intercropping both reduced cowpea grain yield significantly. Land equivalent ratios were greater than one for all tested intercrop systems: cassava-cowpea (1.21-2.35), maize-cowpea (1.31-4.23), maize-cassava-cowpea

Maintaining phosphorus (P) fertility in northern Great Plains (NGP) dryland organic cropping systems is a challenge due to high pH, calcareous soils that limit P bioavailability. Organic P fertilizers, including rock phosphate (RP) and bone meal (BM) are sparingly soluble in higher pH soils. Certain crops species have demonstrated an ability to mobilize sparingly soluble P sources. Objectives of this project were to 1) evaluate the effect of green manure (GM) crops and organic P fertilizers on the P nutrition of subsequent crops, and 2) investigate P fertility differences between organic and n

Sugarcane is a high-biomass producing crop and often requires substantial amounts of nitrogen (N) fertiliser to achieve optimal yields. Nitrogen fertiliser represents a significant input cost for the sugar industry. This nutrient is highly challenging to manage due to its susceptibility to various kinds of losses following application, for example, leaching and denitrification. In addition to reduced profitability, N losses potentially lead to environmental degradation, for example, through eutrophication of water bodies.
