Residue Biomass — GLBRC Scale-up 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Data in the KBS LTER core database may not be published without written permission of the lead investigator or project director Full terms of use
Biomass of crop residue left in the field after machine harvest of all crops at Lux Arbor and Marshall Farm in 2015 and for corn only in 2015-2017. Data collected to estimate harvest efficiency. Note that corn stover is harvested by windrowing and baling; in 2016-2017 samples were collected from within (W) and between (B) windrows.
This datatable is part of the GLBRC Scale-up Experiment Cropping Systems dataset.
This dataset contains data on plant communities in fields at Lux Arbor Reserve (L1-L3) and Marshall Farm (M1-M4) planted to corn (L1, M1), switchgrass (L2, M3), and restored prairie (L3, M2) in 2010 after a 2009 no-till soybean crop in all fields to convert tilled corn-soybean-wheat rotations (AGR) at Lux Arbor and fields in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) at Marshall Farm to no-till bioenergy crops. One field at Marshall Farm (M4) remains as CRP brome grass to serve as a reference. Each field has 10 sampling stations (S1-S10) around which most sampling occurs.
