1. Spatial Mapping Of Penetrometer Resistance On Turfgrass Soils For Site-specific CultivationSite-specific management requires site-specific information. Soil compaction at field capacity is a major stress on recreational turfgrass sites that requires frequent cultivation. Spatial mapping of penetrometer... K. Rice, T. Carson, J. Krum, I.

2. An Overview of Soil Carbon, Management, and Agricultural SystemsTopics to be covered include a discussion of what soil carbon sequestration is, how and where in the soil it occurs, and its role in maintaining important soil properties. The author draws upon his experience and that of others about practices for various parts of the US to describe on-farm and experimental agricultural systems and their degree of success to sequester carbon and improve soil quality. Included is an overview of carbon sequestration strategies and possible... R. Follett, E. Short |
3. Precision Irrigation To Improve Water Use EfficiencyEfficient water use is the key to sustainable management of water resources. Over irrigating is wasteful and can lead to leaching of fertilizers and other potential pollutants into both underground and surface water supplies, whereas under irrigation leads to reduced yields. The spatial and temporal characterization of crop water consumption is important for efficient management of water resources and allows water delivery to match agricultural demands. Research... S.
