Wheat and Grain Sorghum in Four-Year Rotations

Alan J. Schlegel, Johnathon D. Holman, Charles P. Thompson

Abstract

In recent years, cropping intensity has increased in dryland systems in western Kansas. The traditional wheat-fallow system is being replaced by wheat-summer crop-fallow rotations. Is more intensive cropping feasible with concurrent increases in no-till? Objectives of this research were to quantify soil water storage, crop water use, and crop productivity of 4-year and continuous cropping systems.
