M.S. Assistantship Opening! Myself and Shaun Casteel have funding and are looking for an M.S. student starting this summer to work on intensive corn and soybean management systems with fertigation. See description for this NIFA funded project below. Purdue Agronomy

Customized mousepads featuring sand + POM just arrived! I can't wait to distribute these around the lab.

From @BrianCRinehart "This methodology enables root studies to move beyond the size limitations of scanner-based methods, integrate whole-system traits like root depth distribution, and save time on root image capture." acsess.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/pp…

About 24% of the fertilizer N applied this year will be recovered by cereal crops in future years. The soil does not let go of all the past (nitrogen)!

A picture can be worth a thousand soil health indicators. We've got pineapple corn (water stress) in the plowed soil but not in the no-till ground. Great observation gfrigofernandes

New research led by Lucas Canisares. Cover crop species differ in residue quality, which has large effects on subsequent crop growth and particulate organic matter but minor direct effects on mineral-associated organic matter. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New publication for the holidays. Dissertation is finally all published. Corn optimum nitrogen fertilizer rate and application timing following a rye cover crop. Chad Lee 🧢 Hanna Poffenbarger @FernandoMiguez1 Shalamar Armstrong authors.elsevier.com/a/1gIBY1M2tVRU…

📢New postdoc opportunity on an exciting project linking soil health to cropping system performance. Consider applying to work with our dynamic team - Laila Puntel mike castellano Lucas Canisares and Ken Cassman.

Our new review shows that breeding for yield has altered carbon inputs to the soil, with different effects depending on the crop. mike castellano Virginia Moore Angelica Jaconi and Dennis Egli acsess.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/cs…

Looks like a cool talk integrating biology and history! Jackson (Blue Check)

Good morning! We are looking to fill a couple of positions in my group - postdoctoral researcher and PhD student. Check them out: poffenbargerlab.com/opportunities.…

A fast-growing industry is paying farmers millions of dollars to store carbon in soils. But some doubt that the science to support such efforts is ready for prime time. And the debate has become surprisingly heated. My feature for Science Magazine science.org/content/articl…

Happy to have learnt about cover crop mixtures and the effect of long-term N fertilizer applications on their dynamics with a hard work team and great mentors Hanna (Hanna Poffenbarger) and Montse in Kentucky UniversityofKentucky #covercrop #publishing sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
