DOI: 10.1002/jeq2.20063
Abstract: An integrated crop-livestock system (ICLS), when managed properly, can help in mitigating soil surface greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes, especially carbon dioxide (CO2 ), methane (CH4 ), and nitrous oxide (N2 O). However, the impacts of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jeq2.20217
Abstract: The Midwestern US is a highly productive agricultural region, and extended crop-free periods in winter/spring can result in nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) losses to waterways that degrade downstream water quality. Planting winter cover crops… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jeq2.20388
Abstract: Nutrient loading from conventional row-crop production systems impairs surface waterbodies in the mid-southern USA. This study was conducted to determine whether minimum tillage and winter cover crops can decrease nutrient loading in surface runoff from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10705-020-10105-6
Abstract: Although cover crops (CC) are a promising option for reducing N losses, CC impacts on N availability and subsequent yields are highly inconsistent. Therefore, in a medium-term CC experiment in Ontario, Canada, the effect of… read more here.
