Aboveground and belowground responses to cyanobacterial biofertilizer supplement in a semi‐arid, perennial bioenergy cropping system

Abstract The need for sustainable agricultural practices to meet the food, feed, and fuel demands of a growing global population while reducing detrimental environmental impacts has driven research in multi‐faceted approaches to agricultural sustainability. Perennial cropping systems and microbial b...
