Total Carbon and Nitrogen Content at Harvest — GLBRC Biofuel Cropping System Experiment

Data in the KBS LTER core database may not be published without written permission of the lead investigator or project director Full terms of use

Total carbon and nitrogen content of plant samples collected at harvest from all BCSE treatments (G1-G10). Representative samples are taken from the harvested crop at the time of harvest, which includes grain for corn and soybean, stover for corn, and unsorted plant matter for perennial treatments

This datatable is part of the GLBRC Plant Chemical Analyses dataset.

This dataset contains the total carbon and nitrogen content of plant material of the GLBRC Biofuel Cropping System Experiment (BCSE) at peak biomass and at harvest, and the complete chemical analysis of leaf tissue of selected species to occasionally assess their nutrient status.
