Expanded Agronomic Log — Biodiversity Gradient 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Data in the KBS LTER core database may not be published without written permission of the lead investigator or project director Full terms of use
An expanded log of agronomic activities on the Biodiversity Gradient Experiment.
This datatable is part of the Agronomy of the Biodiversity Gradient Experiment dataset.
This dataset contains the agronomic yields and activities of the LTER Biodiversity Gradient Experiment (a.k.a. Biodiversity Experiment Plots or BExP) from its establishment in 2000 through 2020, one year past its retirement when all treatment plots (B1-B21) were planted to sorghum to test for residual agronomic effects.
