Abstract:
... Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) has been proposed as a sustainable bioenergy crop because of its high yield potential, adaptation to marginal sites, and tolerance to water and nutrient limitations. A better understanding of the potential effects of biomass energy crop production practices on soil biological properties and organic matter dynamics is critical to its production. Our objective was t ...

interspecific variation; cultivars; mathematical models; forage crops; Panicum coloratum; application rate; soil water content; Cynodon dactylon; arid zones; dry matter accumulation; crop yield; rain; growth models; Eragrostis curvula; Cenchrus ciliaris; nitrogen fertilizers; Texas
Abstract:
... Models provide a quantitative means to evaluate yield response of forage grasses to applied N and water availability. The objective of this analysis was to estimate model parameters (A, b, c) for bermu. dagrasses and bunchgrasses grown at the same location and during the same time period. The logistic equation was used to relate annual dry matter production to applied N for three bermudagrasses [C ...

Subject:
Cynodon dactylon; Paleustalfs; Panicum coloratum; Paspalum notatum; agronomy; field capacity; forage production; land restoration; lignite; mined soils; montmorillonite; nitrogen; texture; Texas
Abstract:
... Lignite mining is an expanding industry within Texas. Little or no research has been reported concerning forage production and revegetation following disturbance in this region. Forage plots were established in 1975 to determine the effect of disturbance upon forage production in an area which had been surface-mined for lig nite in 1972. The mined soil was originally classified in the fine , montm ...
