Soil quality dynamics in an integrated reduced-tillage and cover-cropped vegetable agroecosystem

Creator:

Banners, Candace R.

Abstract:

Soil response and function were investigated following the adoption of an integrated reduced-tillage and cover-cropped vegetable system in the Willamette Valley of Western Oregon. The experiment was conducted over three cropping seasons (2002-2004) at the Oregon State University Vegetable Research Farm (Corvallis, OR). The design was a randomized complete-block with...

Long-term Impacts of Nitrogen Fertilizer, Tillage and Crop Residue on Soil and Plant Nutrients in Winter Wheat Cropping Systems Under Dryland Conditions

Creator:

Shiwakoti, Santosh

Abstract:

Agricultural practices influence the nutrient dynamics of soil and plants, which may take more than a decade to be expressed in the drylands. The nutrient supplying capacity of soil is a crucial component of sustainable agriculture, and hence, this study can play an important role in policy making for the...
