Information about the interaction of harvesting and N fertilization on composition of warm-season grasses grown as biofuel feedstocks is limited. Our objective was to determine composition of warm-season grasses as influenced by N fertilization rates

Increased biomass productivity could be achieved through double-cropping if extended growth duration could be realized with minimal reductions in growth efficiency relative to sole-cropping. To test this hypothesis, functional growth analysis was use

Recent attention has focused on the use of perennial, warm-season grasses as renewable energy crops. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of N fertilization on partitioning of biomass and nutrients between above- and belowground plan

Double-crop systems have the potential to generate additional feedstocks for bioenergy and livestock utilization, and also to reduce NO 3 -N leaching relative to sole-crop systems. Field studies were conducted near Ames, IA, during 2005-2007 to evalu

We conducted a 9-ha field experiment near Boone, IA, to test the hypothesis that yield, weed suppression, and profit characteristics of low-external-input (LEI) cropping systems can match or exceed those of conventional systems. Over a 4-yr period, w

Emerging markets for fuels and energy from crop biomass are creating new opportunities for redesigning agricultural systems for improved ecological function and energy-use effi ciency. Innovative bioconversion processes confi gured to recover key pla

Invertebrate seed predator communities were compared between conventionally managed maize/soybean and low-input maize/soybean/ triticale–alfalfa/alfalfa crop rotation systems using pitfall traps from July to October 2003 and 2004. Predation of gian

Summary 1 Post-dispersal seed predation is an important source of mortality for arable weed populations that can potentially contribute to ecologically based management strategies. The extent to which cropping practices influence rates of seed predat

To better understand seed predation and enhance weed seed losses in arable fields, we developed a conceptual model that integrates seed dispersal, seed burial, and seed demand, the three processes that determine the dynamics of summer annual weed see

To improve understanding of relationships between crop diversity, weed management practices, and weed population dynamics, we used data from a field experiment and matrix models to examine how contrasting crop rotations affect velvetleaf. We compared
