1. Tillage and Nitrogen Rates Influenced Wheat and Sorghum ProductivityReduced tillage (RT) or no-tillage (NT) practices and reducing fallow frequency can both decrease soil losses from wind erosion and conserve soil water in the semiarid regions of the US Great Plains. This study evaluated sorghum grain yield in 2013 and wheat grain yield in 2014 and 2015 as influenced by long-term nitrogen (N) fertilizer application rates (0, 20, 40, and 60 lb N ac- 1) and tillage intensity [clean tillage (CT), RT, and NT] in dryland winter wheat–sorghum-fallow (W-S-F) cropping...

2. Soil Physical Quality Effects of Novel Perennial Grain Cropping at Two Contrasting Sites in Alberta, CanadaNovel perennial grain crops have been proposed as a solution to several environmental issues facing modern agriculture, namely the loss of soil quality often associated with annual monocrops. Abundant literature has stressed the importance of good soil quality for maintaining and improving ecosystem services provided by agricultural systems including, but not limited to, soil carbon sequestration, disease suppression and water filtration. Conversion of annual croplands to perennial systems has... E. Daly, K. Kim , G. Hernandez-ramirez, K. Klimchuk |
3. Effects of Phosphorus and Potassium Application Timing on a Wheat Double Crop Soybean SystemThe wheat-double crop soybean system is a popular choice for Oklahoma producers, as it allows for two crops in one year, and therefore, more revenue in less time. With favorable conditions and proper management, double crop soybeans are yielding as well as full season soybeans. Weather pattern shifts over the last few years have raised the question for growers if they should invest more into the summer double crop, as there is growing potential for profit. While attempting... H. Lovewell, B. Finch, R. Sharry , M. Smith, J. Souza, B. Arnall |
4. Effects of Potassium and Boron on Cotton Lint YieldThe importance of potassium (K) is numerously documented as it’s essential for photosynthesis, stomatal regulation, enzyme activation and chlorophyll development. While a majority of cotton production occurs in the southwest portion of Oklahoma, producers from south to northwest are implementing rotations of cotton and wheat. In the western portion of the state soil pH becomes increasingly alkaline [whereas areas in wheat production are predominantly acidic]. Although K becomes more available... M. Smith, B. Arnall |
5. Evaluation of N Source in No-till Winter WheatNitrogen (N) source efficacy is dependent upon product used, application timing, and the condition of the environment in which it is placed. This study serves to look at how different N sources can be affected across different regions of Oklahoma, specifically in a heavy residue, no-till environment. N sources that were included in the study were Urea, Urea-Ammonium Nitrate (UAN), UAN + Anvol, and SuperU. The N sources were evaluated across nine site-years (SY) where each product had four... J.

6. Nitrogen Management of Cotton Following Corn in the High PlainsNitrogen (N) management in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is challenging given physiological dynamics in an indeterminate crop. Cotton performance may be harmed due not only to under fertilization of N, but also excessive fertilization. This is especially pertinent when managing cotton for earliness. Often these challenges occur in the form of delaying the onset of reproductive structures due to the crops indeterminate nature, leading to problems associated with "finishing"... R. Sharry, M.
