The broad impacts of corn stover and wheat straw removal for biofuel production on crop productivity, soil health and greenhouse gas emissions: A review

Martin Battaglia et al.

Summary: The removal of crop residues for biofuel production may not have long-term impacts on grain yield, but in cases where water is limited, there may be a decrease in crop yield. Changes in soil organic fractions and nutrients are largely influenced by the amount of residue returned, soil depth and texture, slope, and tillage practices.

Straw mulching improves soil water content, increases flag leaf photosynthetic parameters and maintaines the yield of winter wheat with different irrigation amounts

Yanqun Zhang et al.

Summary: The study showed that straw mulching improved soil moisture, stimulated plant photosynthesis, and had a positive effect on canopy potential photosynthetic capacity of winter wheat. While the yield was not significantly affected, straw mulching helped improve the harvest index of winter wheat, showcasing its potential benefits in maintaining yield under favorable growing conditions.
