Abstract

AbstractThis is the first article in a new series in Crops & Soils magazine that will look at soil health and greenhouse gas emissions on U.S. dairies associated with crop production. Articles will cover soil health practices, data‐based decision‐making, greenhouse gas measurement in soils, manure application and storage, and informing future carbon markets with science. This article will discuss the Dairy Soil and Water Regeneration project. Using a whole‐systems approach, project researchers are measuring how different management practices—from using cover crops to applying novel fertilizers, including manure‐based products—affect soil health, potentially reduce greenhouse emissions and impact water quality under varying climate and field water management systems.
