1. Wheat Zinc Nutrition: Agronomic Biofortification That Delivers Yield and Better Grain NutritionLow Zn availability in calcareous soils is a common issue in the Canadian prairies, where much of the wheat is exported, making Canada one of the world’s largest wheat exporters. Globally, 19% of the population, mostly pregnant women, infants, and children, suffers from Zn deficiency, highlighting the need to enhance Zn bioavailability in wheat grain. Agronomic biofortification offers a promising strategy to improve grain nutrient density while optimizing plant health and development. While... M. Proulx, X. Gao |
2. Sheep Grazing Preference and Nutrient Cycling Implications Among Cover Crop SpeciesThe vast and interspersed livestock and crop industries of Texas lend opportunity for livestock integration to benefit regional agricultural systems. Texas leads sheep production in the U.S. and small ruminant integration in crop systems has become an appealing opportunity in recent years due to strong meat markets and generally poor commodity crop markets. Many winter cover crops are likely suitable forages, and challenges of nutrient immobilization could be (at least partially) mitigated by... R. Matschek, R. Noland, N. Nielson, J. Thorne, M.
