Effect of Cropping Systems on Runoff, Erosion, and Wheat Yields
1960
Horner, G. M.
SynopsisCrop rotations that include legume-grass sod crops are more effective for runoff and erosion control, soil organic matter maintenance, and high wheat yields than the unfertilized pea-wheat and fallow-wheat systems. Summer fallowing causes the largest erosion losses and the most rapid depletion of organic matter.

Effect of 1,2,4,5-Tetrachlorobenzene on the Germination and Seedling Vigor of Barley, Oats, and Wheat
1960
Ameen, O. A. | Day, A. D. | Hamilton, K. C.
SynopsisThe effects were most detrimental in sandy soil. As the soil type changed from sand, to sandy loam, to clay loam, to clay, the damage decreased. With each increase in the interval between soil treatment and planting there was a general increase in germination and seedling vigor.

The Effect of Seeding Rate and Rate of Nitrogen Application on Winter Wheat Varieties with Different Characteristics
1960
Pendleton, J. W. | Dungan, G. H.
SynopsisVarieties showed a different yield response to seeding rates and to rates of nitrogen application. This response did not seem to be correlated with varietal morphological characteristics. Variety selection controlled more agronomic characteristics than either rate of nitrogen application or rate of seeding.

1960
Lawton, K. | Davis, J. F.
SynopsisUnder greenhouse conditions, contact placement of wheat seed with 5-20-20 fertilizer at the rate of 500 pounds per acre seriouly delayed and reduced emergence of seedlings and subsequent growth. Similar placement of seed with 5-20-0 fertilizer was only slightly detrimental. Applying mixed fertilizer in a band below or 1½ inches to the side and 1½ inches below the seed was most desirable from standpoint of emergence, growth, and uptake of fertilizer phosphorus.

1960
Doll, E. C. | Miller, H. F. | Freeman, J. F.
SynopsisAfter 26 and 27 years at the Campbellsville and Greenville experiment fields, respectively, yields of corn, wheat, and hay were generally maintained or increased on superphosphate, rock phosphate, and rock phosphate residual plots, but decreased on superphosphate residual plots. Initial availability of rock phosphate tended to be lower than that of concentrated superphosphate.

1960
McNeal, F. H.
SynopsisLemhi and Thatcher varieties of spring wheat differed for all characters studied except heads per plant. The intensity of red kernel color among the segregates had no influence on plant yield or on the various yield components. Heads per plant and kernels per head were more closely associated with yield per plant than was kernel weight.
