Technical Abstract:
Goals:
•Compare perennial grass systems v. a continuous corn (Zea mays) system in terms of soil inputs, soil property changes and yield
•Potential benefits of perennials: can be grown on marginal crop land, potentially lower input levels, potentially higher biomass yield, and potentially increased soil carbon storage as compared to annual cropping systems
