Organic vegetable growers rely on legume cover crops as an economical source of plant-available N. This research evaluated N contributions to summer vegetable crops by cover crops (CC) residues by monitoring soil nitrate (NO3-N) concentrations during the summer crop growing season. Replicated field plots were established with three CC mixes:...

Computer simulation models provide insight into ammonia loss processes and the sensitivity of ammonia loss predictions to environmental and management variables.
As an example of how a simple computer simulation model can inform the Extension guideline development process, the ALFAM (Ammonia Volatilization from Field-Applied Animal Slurry) model was used to...
The purpose of this report is to document changes
resulting from long-term application of biosolids to
grazed dryland pasture. The report contains two chapters:
• Chapter 1: Biosolids Increase Grass Yield and Quality
in Dryland Pasture
• Chapter 2: Biosolids Increase Soil Fertility in Dryland
Pasture
Data summarized here was...
