The effect of a previous crop and its residue left on the field before the next crop is a consequence of soil water usage and residue quality. We evaluated the grain yield of forty winter wheat varieties, as well as soil bulk density, soil water content, and previous crop’s residue C:N ratio in three neighboring fields near Solomon, KS. Wherein these three fields, winter wheat was no-tilled following a previous crop of either 1) soybean; 2) cover crop mix (legume and cereal); or 3) winter wheat. The mix of cover crops consisted of pearl millet, sorghum sudan, and sunn hemp. …

A long-term cover crop experiment was established in 2007 at Ashland Bottoms near Manhattan, KS, to determine the effect of cover crops and nitrogen (N) rates on subsequent corn growth and yield in a wheat-corn-soybean rotation. Treatments included chemical fallow, double crop soybean, different cover crops (cereal rye,crimson clover, a mix of cereal rye and crimson clover, and a diverse mix of seven species) planted in late summer after wheat harvest, and five N rates (0, 40, 80, 160, and 240 lb/acre) applied to the subsequent corn crop. Yield responded differently to N rate depending on cover crop …
