1. Effects of Residue Placement on Co2 Loss in an Irrigated, No-till Corn System It is well known that residue management practices that leave crop residue on the surface, such as no-till agriculture, promote soil fertility. However, the effects of such practices on carbon sequestration can be highly variable. To better understand how residue management impacts the loss of carbon through mineralization, we investigated the effects of residue location and addition on CO2 produced from residue decomposition under no-till irrigated continuous corn in Northern Colorado. Over... H. Oleszak, F. Cotrufo, S. Leichty, C. Stewart Download paper
2. Enhanced Efficiency Nitrogen Fertilizer: Coated Urea Nitrogen (N) is the most common fertilizer. However, a large percentage is lost to the environment—resulting in pollution and depletion of natural resources—representing economic losses. Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizers (EEF) help mitigate these problems by reducing the time N is in forms most susceptible to loss, increasing uptake efficiency and, often, yield and/or crop quality. One example of N EEF are coated urea fertilizers, such as polymer coated urea (PCU). Research studies show... S. Fahning, B.G. Hopkins Download paper
