Near‐surface soil property changes affected by management practices in a long‐term, wheat–soybean, double‐crop system
Abstract Long‐term agricultural sustainability and productivity are controlled by the integrative effects of different management practices on the soil. Many Arkansas producers use the double‐crop system to grow soybeans [Glycine max (L.) Merr] and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The objective of this...
