· Nearly every year, adverse weather and crop conditions result in lodged corn in some fields. Lodging may be caused by a windstorm, stalk rot or other disease, rootworm activity, or some combination of these. The damage varies considerably depending on the severity of lodging. Lodging not only impacts the yield potential of a corn crop, but also creates a residue .

· However, because of the complexity of treatment programs for D. suzukii and the potential for residuebased export restrictions of fruit, growers should develop plans for management well before harvest. Plans should be made only after consulting with representatives of the packing house and should include multiple options for control programs .
Crop residues are materials usually not taken away but rather left in a field or orchard after the crop has been harvested. They include stalks, stubble, leaves, roots and seed pods. Some crop residues are removed from the land to be used as straw in stables, as animal feed or as a source of energy and may or may not be returned to the land ...
REVISED GUIDELINES OF CROP RESIDUE MANAGEMENT SCHEME 2020 Components of the Scheme The Scheme will have the following major components ( Central Share): (i) Establish Farm Machinery Banks or Custom Hiring Centres of crop residue management machinery (ii) Procurement of Agriculture Machinery and Equipment for crop residue

· Residue Management While many growers who regularly plant in notill or high residue conditions have customized planter setups for their specific needs, you can still plant into high residue or notill fields with a planter that normally operates in conventional tillage. Figure 1. Inspect the furrow periodically during planting to ensure your ...
fertility management program. Effective soil testing provides information on the fertility status of soils within a field that can be used for making fertilizer or lime appliion recommendations, monitoring changes in soil fertility over time and even identifying and targeting low fertility soils within larger fields. Informative soil sampling can improve onfarm nutrient efficiency, leading ...
· The combination of the shortcycle in situ residue production with crop rotation and simple residue management practices could be an effective alternative to the current practices of bush burning and CT and could meet the dual goals of soil carbon sequestration and increased crop yields in the tropics.
· Jagdish "" Ladha, UC new article in the journal Science – "Fields on Fire: Alternatives to Crop Residue Burning in India" – addresses the environmental problems associated with crop burning in India, and presents alternatives such as changing cropping systems and adopting different management practices. "Alternatives to crop residue burning .
BMPs for nonpoint source, such as cropland runoff and erosion, include nutrient management planning, and soil, field and shoreline practices. BMP 25 Cropland Drainage (2011) Many Ontario farms rely on drainage systems to remove excess water, extend field access, lengthen the growing season, conserve topsoil, and generally make best use of agricultural lands.
· This is one of the simplest steps to managing residue and is a common practice for many growers. Shifting the guidance line by half a row width will allow the planter row units to run in between last year's corn or soybean rows, reducing the amount of larger stalk material that the row unit will have to travel through. Other Machine Adjustments
· After harvest, crop residues were removed from the field in NT, or chopped twice (5–8 cm long) with a residue chopper in NTS and NPTS so that only a small amount of the standing stubble, with a ...
Residue Management is a 12 page booklet that provides an overview of the problem with bare soils, why residues work and best practices for managing residue in various crops. AF181 Rotation of Agronomic Crops
· Effective management of animal treatment by laypersons ( producers) and practitioners is expected as a result of initiating or enhancing drug residue prevention programs, and increasing knowledge of proper drug use and extra label drug use regulations. A reduction in illegal drug residues is anticipated in food producing animals.
· Residue management is an important agricultural practice for improving soil fertility. To reveal the impact of residue management on soil microbial community, we conducted a field experiment with three treatments: no straw returning (control, CK), straw returning (SR), and straw returning combined with cow manure (SM).
