Abstract:Continuous maize (Zea mays L.) (CM) cropping has been proposed to increase soil organic carbon stocks through greater residue return to soils. These residues, however, can contribute to a yield decrease known as the continuous maize yield penalty (CMYP). The objectives of this research were to (1) evaluate the efficacy of residue management practices to mitigate the CMYP when compared to a maize–soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] (MS) rotation and (2) determine effects of long‐term rotation or residue sizing on … Show more
