Research Project:
REGIONAL CORN STOVER REMOVAL IMPACT STUDY - AMES
Location: Soil and Water Quality Research
Project Number: 3625-12000-012-04
Project Type:
Reimbursable
Start Date: Oct 01, 2007
End Date: Mar 31, 2009
Objective:
Determine effects of crop residue removal on soil quality.
Approach:
On-going studies at the ISU Agronomy and Agricultural Engineering Research Center (AAERC) will be enhanced by providing more rapid soil quality analyses and interpretation of information. An increased amount of crop response, nutrient uptake, and nutrient removal data will be collected. This study will complement the ARS Renewable Energy Assessment Project (REAP) team efforts with similar resources going to Morris, MN; St. Paul, MN; Lincoln, NE; Brookings, SD; University Park, PA; Pendleton, OR; and Florence, SC; Equal resources per the SunGrant program guidelines will go to university partners at each location to strengthen the research and technology transfer relationships.
