There is an adage that says if you want to find something, follow the money. Our researchers, Cynthia Bartel, Keri Jacobs, Ken Moore, and Raj Raman, did just that with their latest journal publication.
Their paper, Anticipatory technoeconomic evaluation of Kentucky Bluegrass-based perennial groundcover implementations in large-scale Midwestern US corn production systems, utilizes an enterprise budget framework to examine and compare expected costs and revenues associated with establishing and maintaining perennial groundcover in row crop systems with standard continuous corn (SCC) (Zea mays L.) production. The good news is that the article is an open-access publication and written in an accessible style.
