1. The Effects of Manure Applications on Cotton Yield and Soil Greenhouse Gas Emissions in the Texas High Plains The cost of inorganic fertilizer is continually rising, which has caused an increased interest in alternative solutions. Along with fertilizer prices increasing, carbon emissions are following the same trend. There is an upcoming demand for organic fertilizer and carbon research. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of various manure applications on crop growth and greenhouse gas emissions in three different cropping systems in the Texas High Plains. The no-tillage cropping systems... T. Roberts, K. Lewis Download paper
2. Cover Crop Function and Management Optimization for Semiarid West Texas Cropping Systems Water-use is a primary concern preventing integration of cover crops in dry climates. Recent research has demonstrated that adequate cover crop residue (with optimal termination timing) is more likely to improve soil water dynamics for the subsequent crop. Regarding cover crop function in West Texas, wheat stubbles as a fallow may offer a cheap and effective solution to prevent wind erosion and facilitate water storage in soil profile. Optimum management practices are likely different though... T. Hussain, R. Noland, R. Matschek, . Delaune, E. Kimura , J. Muir
3. Evaluating the Profitability of Nitrogen Management Strategies to Increase Yield in Regenerative Cotton Production Systems Soil health management practices, such as cover crops and no-till systems, are common in semi-arid cropping systems to reduce wind erosion. However, implementing these practices can also lower cotton yield. As a result, cotton production using no-till and cover crop systems in semi-arid environments tends to be less profitable than conventional systems, despite lower costs from fewer tillage operations during the growing season. For these soil health practices to be economically sustainable in... A. Wright, J. Burke, K. Lewis, W. Keeling, W. Keeling Download paper
