Climate prediction models suggest that agricultural productivity will be significantly affected in the future. The expected rise average global temperature due to higher release of greenhouse gases (GHGs) into atmosphere and increased depletion water resources with enhanced climate variability a serious threat world food security. Moreover, there is an increase frequency severity long-lasting drought events over 1/3rd landmass five times demand deficits during 21st century. top three...
Dwindling supplies of fossil fuels and their deleterious impacts on human health the global environment have intensified search for substitute energy sources. Biodiesel has been identified as a promising renewable diesel fuel due to several comparable sustainable properties. However, approximately 95% biodiesel is derived from edible oil crops, threatening current food supplies. Therefore, production potential inexpensive, non-edible, non-conventional bioenergy such Jatropha (Jatropha curcas...
Applying biochar and using cover crops are two potential approaches to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, the effectiveness of these methods, individually or in combination, salt-affected soils remains unclear. Thus, objective was determine impact barley (Hordeum vulgare) on N2O CO2 emissions from soil. During 28-day replicated study, GHG were measured near-continuously number nirK, nirS, qnorB, nosZ gene copies 12 28 days after planting (DAP). Biochar accelerated emergence...
Abstract The slowly establishing salt‐tolerant perennial grasses reduced nitrous oxide (N 2 O‐N) emissions from saline/sodic soil compared to barren areas. Other species may accelerate vegetative establishment and reduce N O‐N emissions. In a greenhouse study, barley ( Hordeum vulgare L.), Florida broadleaf mustard Brassica juncea Kernza intermediate wheatgrass [ Thinopyrum intermedium (Host) Barkworth & D. R. Dewey] were grown for 63 days compare shoot biomass chemical composition,...
Abstract Although salinity and sodicity are worldwide problems, information on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agricultural salt‐affected soils is scarce. The CO 2 –C N O–N were quantified three zones intertwined within a single U.S. northern Great Plains field: highly productive zone (electrical conductivity with 1:1 soil/water mass ratio [EC ] = 0.4 dS m –1 ; sodium adsorption [SAR] 1.8), transition (moderately salt‐affected; EC 1.6 SAR 4.99), saline/sodic (EC 3.9 22). In each zone,...
We examine the interactions, decisions, and evaluations of an interdisciplinary team researchers tasked with developing artificial intelligence-based agricultural decision support system that can provide farmers site-specific information about managing nutrients on their land. answer following research questions: (1) How does a relational perspective help conceptualize 'responsibility' in project develops precision agriculture (PA)? (2) What are some lessons for embarking similar technology...
Abstract Carinata ( Brassica carinata A. Braun), a non‐food oilseed crop and an alternative bio‐jet fuel feedstock, has received attention for its potential as low‐input option production in the semi‐arid region of Northern Great Plains United States. Research addressing impacts nitrogen (N) sulfur (S) fertilizers on soils greenhouse gas (GHG; CO 2 , N O, CH 4 ) emissions from are limited. Thus, objective this study was to evaluate impact different rates S applied soil properties GHG...
Abstract Carinata ( Brassica carinata A. Braun), a non‐food oilseed and an alternative biofuel feedstock, has received attention for its potential as low‐input option production in the semi‐arid regions of Northern Great Plains (NGP). This study was conducted to (a) determine economic optimum N S fertilization rates (b) interactive effects on seed yield agronomic traits carinata. The field experiment 2017 2018 at Brookings, SD, had four (56, 84, 112, 140 kg ha −1 ) three (0, 22, 45 )....
Large-scale burning of rice straw causes air pollution and deterioration soil health, which challenges the sustainability rice–wheat system (RWS) in north-western India. In a field experiment on sandy loam (Typic Ustochrept) at Punjab Agricultural University, India, with split plot design, effects four nitrogen (N) levels (0, 90, 120, 150 kg N ha−1) main plots (RS) incorporation 5, 7.5, 10 Mg wheat sub-plots were studied after 7 years carbon (C) pools maximum tillering (MT) flowering (FL)...
Abstract Globally, agricultural scientists are challenged with creating, testing, and validating climate‐smart nutrient strategies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions while increasing food security. This study determined maize ( Zea mays L.) N recommendations bias for N‐rate studies conducted in South Dakota using models created western Minnesota, Iowa, Eastern North Dakota, Nebraska, Dakota. From 2019 to 2021, 16 rate were long‐term no‐tillage (>6 years) fields located In the randomized...
