Title
Economic Comparisons of Crop Rotations Including Alfalfa, Soybean, and Corn1
O. B. Hesterman; C. C. Sheaffer; E. I. Fuller Agronomy Journal 1986. doi:10.2134/agronj1986.00021962007800010006x
Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Continuous corn resulted in at least a $39 ha-1 decrease in 2-year gross margin.
- Observation An alfalfa-corn sequence with a three-cut alfalfa system was the economically optimum rotation.
- Observation Optimum rotations were determined more by the quantity and quality of alfalfa forage produced than by differences in second-phase corn grain yield.
- Recommendation Management of alfalfa to increase high-quality forage production is suggested to contribute to the economic viability of 2-year alfalfa-corn rotations.
- Observation At three of four locations, Saranac AR gave greater gross margins than MN ROOT N, an experimental alfalfa.
