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Data in the KBS LTER core database may not be published without written permission of the lead investigator or project director Full terms of use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

2024-09-30 B1 Mechanical Weed Control Soil Finished the LTER Biodiversity Study. The entire study was soil finished East to West starting in the Southeast corner and then headland passes were made North to South on the edges of replications. Tillage was done to disrupt the growth of chickweed. In future tillage will be repeated until the chickweed is satisfactorily controlled B1R3 John Deere 7520 Tractor 6396
