Each month, the conservation ag group at Cornell University offers an analysis of the latest scientific papers dealing with conservation agriculture research from around the world. For this on-going web series, our editors will be selecting several research papers from the Cornell list that will be of special interest to North American no-tillers, strip-tillers and cover croppers.
In this edition:
- Soil health and conservation
- In-season temporal variability of soil carbon and nitrogen pools after half a century of a tillage and crop rotation gradient.
- Soil organic matter: The heart of soil health.
- Cover Crops and Sustainable Agriculture.
- Soil health and disturbance-based classification of farming systems.
- Chapter 11. Cover Crop Mixes for Diversity, Carbon and Conservation Agriculture.
- Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration and Distribution, Soil Biological Characteristics, and Winter Wheat Yields Under Different Tillage Practices in Long-Term Field Experiment.
