1. Assessing the Benefits of Radish as a Cover CropOilseed radish (Raphanus sativus L) is a popular cover crop for no-till farmers in Wisconsin, especially among those that include winter wheat in rotation since radish can accumulate large amounts of nitrogen (N). However, previously presented research in Wisconsin has not shown a clear N credit for a subsequent corn crop. Additionally, there is a lack of information that quantifies other benefits of radish, including compaction reduction and nematode suppression. The objective of this project was... |
2. Cover Crops Impact on Biomass, Yield, Soil Health, and Nutrient Loss in a Tile-Terrace FieldSoil erosion by water can be the most important land degradation process on erodible to highly erodible soils. Therefore, different conservation practices can be implemented to address the issue including no-tillage, cover crops (CC), grass filter strips, riparian buffers, and terraces. A field trial was established at the University of Missouri Grace Greenley Research Center near Novelty to evaluate the impact of CC and no-CC (non-treated control, NTC) on crop yields, soil health, and water quality/quantity...
