A review of the phosphorus content of dry cereal and legume crops of the world
When food scarcity increases, instability in society increases. The majority of food consumed is from cereals and legumes. Phosphorus is essential for crop plant growth and soils are depleted as this element is removed from crop lands with harvested grains/seeds. To sustain yields, inputs of nutrients are required to balance losses. On global and continental/regional bases, we assembled nine ...

Hulless barley seeding rate effects on grain yield and yield components
Recent efforts to expand markets for winter barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) in the mid-Atlantic have focused on hulless types due to higher energy density. The exposed endosperm of hulless barley makes damage more likely than with hulled barley, and emergence is typically lower. Information to determine the optimum seeding rate for winter hulless barley is presently unavailable. Experiments were ...

Main-stem node removal effect on soybean seed yield and composition
Hail injury to soybean [Glycine max L. (Merr.)] is common across the United States. Currently, U.S. hail adjusters use procedures that assume that yield reductions caused by stem cutoff and defoliation or defoliation without stem loss is similar during the vegetative development period. Our hypothesis was that seed yield will be affected by timing of node removal in vegetative soybean and that ...

Evaluation of management practices for grain amaranth production in eastern canada
Grain amaranth (Amaranthus spp.) is a C4 dicotyledonous pseudocereal crop that was widely cultivated in pre-Columbian America. It was successfully introduced in many regions with contrasting environmental conditions. The introduction of grain amaranth in eastern Canada would represent an opportunity for diversification. A study was conducted to evaluate management practices for grain amaranth ...

Rice seeding and nitrogen rate effects on yield and yield components of two rice cultivars
Field research was conducted for 2 yr to investigate the relationship between rice (Oryza sativa L.) seeding rate and preflood nitrogen (N) rate utilizing long-grain rice cultivars planted into clay and silt loam soils. Rice cultivars included ‘Cheniere’ and ‘Wells’ seeded at 162, 323, and 646 seeds m–2. Nitrogen was applied before flooding at 67, 134, and 202 kg ha–1. No response to soil texture ...

When it rains, it pours. Is the SUMO DTS strip-til drill the answer?
2020 has been a challenging year with forces so far out of our control, it actually seems the situation has gone from the ridiculous to the absurd. With saturated land, the New Agriculture Bill (the bill) and the Coronavirus pandemic the industry has to look at improving farming practices to stay on track. The main conversation is how farmers cover the ground with less passes, less disturbance ...

3 Tips on How to Keep Dairy Barns Bird-Free
Controlling birds around farm buildings can take time out of your already strict daily routines. Nuisance birds like pigeons, starlings and barn swallows don’t care about anyone’s schedule but their own. Unfortunately, sharing the barn with pest birds isn’t sanitary and the costs and dangers of birds in dairy and livestock operations can add up quickly! See how to keep dairy ...

Seeding rate and nitrogen management effects on spring wheat yield and yield components
Seeding rate, N level, and N application timing are key management factors for spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production in North Dakota. Experiments were conducted under dryland (Casselton, ND) and irrigated (Carrington, ND) conditions in 2003 to 2005 to determine the optimum combination of seeding rate and N management to maximize yield of hard red spring wheat (HRSW). Treatments consisted ...
