Stover Removal Subplot Yields — GLBRC Biofuel Cropping System Experiment
Data in the KBS GLBRC core database may not be published without written permission of the lead investigator or project director Full terms of use
Agronomic grain yields of the corn stover subplots (stover removal vs stover non-removal) in BCSE annual treatments (G1-G4, depending on year). Note that stover is removed from the main plots of all annual treatments when corn is grown. Also note that grain yields are given at standard moisture and need to be converted if dry matter yields are required.
This datatable is part of the Agronomic Yields dataset.
This dataset contains the yields from machine harvests for all treatments (G1-G10) of the GLBRC Biofuel Cropping System Experiment (BCSE). Yields are measured in each treatment replicate (R1-R5) during normal crop harvest by machine harvesters appropriate to each crop, as recorded in the KBS Aglog.
This dataset also includes yields from two different subplot studies on 1) stover removal vs stover non-removal and 2) plus nitrogen vs no nitrogen fertilization. See the BCSE – Sampling protocol for further description of subplot management and location.
