This field study examined the impacts of a single-season application of cover crops on detection of pathogen species in the tomato crop rhizosphere.
Analysts construct a partial budget to estimate the expected change in profit associated with a proposed change in the farm business, for example, early season application of nitrogen fertilizer to pastures.
Does it make sense to produce additional forage to be grazed in pastures early in the grazing season via an early season application of nitrogen fertilizer given milk production goals, and given that feed needs are to be met using the optimal mix of pasture sourced feed and purchased TMR?

They tried four different treatment "regimes", which varied the timing and method of herbicide spraying, and compared them with conventional crop-management regimes such as those used in the FSEs.The best results came from a single early-season application of glyphosate.
If deficiencies are observed during the growing season, application of sulfate S as late as bolting to early flowering can be beneficial although yield will generally be lower than if the S had been available from the start of crop growth.
Therefore, for effective positive changes in soil properties, a long-term (more than three seasons) application of organic wastes is recommended.
Phytotoxic injury to Pseudotsuga menziesii in response to late season application of glyphosate has been observed in other studies (Harrington et al. 1995) so it is important to deploy this treatment early in winter.
The average two applications in recent years on winter wheat could include a pre- or at-plant spray, an application during a summer fallow period, and/or a late-season application intended to speed up harvest operations (a so-called "harvest aid" or "green burndown" use) [41].
At four-year institutions with traditional admission seasons (application deadlines in December, decisions sent out in late March/early April), March is crunch time--the admission committee is meeting to finalize the class, tie up loose ends and start the campaign to make sure accepted students will come.
