Past management impacts phosphorus availability

  • Post author:soilsatguelph
  • Post published:November 24, 2021
  • Post category:Study Summary

The corn-soybean rotation is the dominant cropping system on farmland throughout central Canada and the midwestern United States. However, long-term research shows that this rotation has lower crop yields, soil quality, resilience to climate change, and profitability.

Hold your P! Measuring phosphorus loss from cover crops

  • Post author:soilsatguelph
  • Post published:July 19, 2021
  • Post category:Study Summary

Phosphorus is an essential nutrient for plant growth – including the algae that grow in rivers and lakes. When phosphorus is lost from agricultural soils into waterways, it can allow algae to grow rapidly, which causes problems for fish and humans.
