Organic Amendments for Corn Production | Long-Term No-Till Experiment at Ohio State University

Описание: Welcome to the long-term soil management research site at The Ohio State University, where we’re investigating how organic amendments like compost and manure influence soil health, physical properties, and corn productivity under no-till farming systems.

This long-term experiment, now spanning over 27 years, evaluates the legacy effects of organic inputs on soil structure, carbon sequestration, and sustainable crop yield. By comparing treatments such as compost, manure, cover crop, and fallow, the study aims to identify soil-building practices that enhance water retention, aggregate stability, and soil physical quality in temperate agroecosystems.

The long-term no-till experiment provides crucial insights into how sustainable soil management practices can enhance soil function, mitigate climate change, and promote regenerative agriculture.

If you’re passionate about soil science, sustainable agriculture, carbon management, and climate-smart farming, this video offers a real-world look at applied research in soil health improvement.
