2015-09-30 Harvest Harvested soybeans on the LTER Main Site between September 30, and October 2, 2015, treatments T1, T2, and T3; all replications. Please notes below for specific dates for individual harvest dates for each specific plot. Number of soybean rows harvested from both east and west sides were counted and recorded to determine total area harvested. Plot weight was determined by unloading soybeans from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co. At harvest each plots were divided into two distinct sides, the west side and the east side. With 15' of the north and south ends 'headland passes of each plot being included in the west side data. The west side of each plot contained a headland pass across the entire width of the plot on the north and south end of each plot and ~ 107-110 rows of soybeans for T1-T3 and 54 rows for T4 located on the west side of each plot. The created headland was one pass across both north and south headland with the JD 9410 combine with a grain head (15 feet wide). The reason that we need to create an artificial headland was because we needed more room to turn the combine around. Grain yield and moisture from treatments 1-4 across all six replications were recorded. However, the standard agronomic yields recorded on the web page were taken only from the east side of the plots. The decision to post the yield from only the east side of the plots stems from the fact that on the west side of the plot contains a micro plot area and headland passes. In northwest corner of treatments 1 and 2 are the micro plots that did not receive any weed control, cultivation or herbicides. Because of the competition from the weed in the micro plots the decision was made to record the official yields from the east side of the plots. The micro plot area measures 50 ft (15 meters) from the north edge of the plots towards to south and 133.3 ft (40 meters) from the west edge of the plots towards the east. The micro plot area in treatments 1 and 2 that did not receive any weed control was mowed down before harvest. Harvest dates for specific plots: T1R1: West and East side Oct. 1, 2015; T1R2: West and East side Sept. 30, 2015; T1R3: West and East side Sept. 30, 2015; T1R4: West and East side Oct. 2, 2015; T1R5: West and East side Oct. 1, 2015; T1R6: West and East side Sept. 30, 2015; T2R1: West and East side Sept. 30, 2015; T2R2: West and East side Oct. 1, 2015; T2R3: West and East side Oct. 1, 2015; T2R4: West and East side Oct. 1, 2015; T2R5: West and East side Oct. 1, 2015; T2R6: West and East side Sept. 30, 2015; T3R1: West and East side Sept. 30, 2015; T3R2: West and East side Oct. 1, 2015; T3R3: West and East side Oct. 2, 2015; T3R4: West and East side Oct. 1, 2015; T3R5: West and East side Oct. 1, 2015; T3R6: West and East side Sept. 30, 2015; T4: west side all reps were harvested on Oct. 19, 2015; east side all reps were harvested on Oct. 20, 2015

2015-10-20 Harvest Harvested soybeans in LTER Main Site, treatments T4 all replications. The west side of each plot was harvested on October 19, 2015. reps: 2, 6, ?, ?, ?, and 1. The east side of each plot was harvested on October 20, 2015. reps: 2, 3, 5, 4, 1, and 6. Entire plot weight was determined by unloading soybeans from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co. Plots were divided into an east and west side with 15' of the north and south ends 'headland passes' of the plot being included in the west side. Number of soybean rows harvested from both east and west sides were counted and recorded to determine total area harvested. Smaller micro plots were harvested with the Kincaid plot combine and were not included in the total plot weight. Moisture and test weights were determined using a portable Dicky-john GAC500 XT grain analysis moisture tester. Viking Organic Soybean Seed Variety 0.2265, certified organic soybean seed is what was being harvested. East side of each plot was placed into a grain cleaner (NECO brand grain cleaner, rented from W.J. Stafford) before placement into the weigh wagon.

2015-10-19 Harvest Harvested soybeans from the LTER T8nt plots and the CE study, and the T4 micro-plots. We did not harvest the weed free plots in the T4 micro-plots this year because the plots were never keep weed free (lack of time and help to keep plots weed free). Four rows of soybeans were harvested from the middle of each plot. Plot weight and moisture content were obtained from the on-board computer/software weighing system, (Mirus software by Harvest Master, Juniper Systems). Brook Wilke harvested the remaining plot area soybeans on October 19, 2015 with the JD 9410 combine and blue/white grain truck (truck #1271).

2015-11-04 Harvest Harvested corn in the GLBRC G1, G2, and G4 plots, all reps on November 4, 2015. Entire plot weight was determined by unloading corn from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co.

2016-07-12 Harvest Harvested LTER Main Site Treatments T1 and T2 soft red winter wheat, T1 all replications were harvested on July 12, 2016. T2R6 was harvested on July ?, 2016. Before harvest we removed 'harvested' a 15' headland pass on all north and south end of each plot. The grain harvested from the 'headland pass' was not recorded as weight of grain removed from each plot. The reason for the 15' headland pass on both end of each plot was so that we would have room to turn the combine around in the alleyway. We harvested 10 passes with the combine on each side of the plot. i.e. harvested 10 passes on the east side of the plot and harvested 10 passes on the west side of the plots. We record a weight from all the east and west sides of all the plots however all the plot weights were joined and one weight was recorded from each plot. 2016 was the first year that the harvest plot weight was from the entire plot area not just the weight from the east side of each plot. The amount of wheat harvested from each plot would not fit into the JD 9410 grain tank so we split the plots in half (based on number of passes needed to harvest each plot). 2016 was the first year that the harvest plot weight was from the entire plot area not just the weight from the east side of each plot. For all plots one wheat grain sample was collected to be used to analyze for percent moisture and test weight of the wheat grain. Straw was wind-rowed behind the combine so that we could bale and remove the straw from all T1 and T2 plots. Total number of wheat rows were determined prior to harvesting the wheat to determine the width of the area harvested. At planting time in fall of 2015 we made 19 passes with a 15' JD 1590 grain drill. 15' * 12"/ft = 180". 180" / 7.5" per row = 24 rows of wheat planted at each pass. 24 rows of wheat each pass * 19 passes per plot = 456 rows of wheat planted in each plot. A John Deere 9410 combine was used to harvest the wheat from all the plots. Weight of the wheat grain was determined using a Unverferth weigh wagon equipped with weigh cells on the axle and tough of the wagon. Moisture of the grain was determined using a portable Dicky John grain analysis computer.

2016-10-10 Harvest Harvested corn in the GLBRC G2 and G3 plots, all reps. Entire plot weight was determined by unloading corn from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co.

Six rows on each side of each plot were harvested with the Kincaid plot combine and was not included in the total plot weight. Moisture and test weights were determined using a portable Dicky-john GAC500 XT grain analysis moisture tester. Corn harvested was G2 and G4 (Pioneer P8906AM) corn hybrid. Estimated harvest time was from 10:30 a.m. - 12:00 noon (this estimate is just harvest time it does not include equipment set up and equipment clean up time). Harvested corn in the bait crop around the GLBRC site: 12 rows of corn harvested on the south and east sides of the bait crop area. The 12 rows were the 30' most southern area and the 30' most eastern area of the bait crop area. Keep are area on ~ 100' on the south side and eastern side for hunting blinds. We did not harvest any of the northern bait crop area today. Estimated harvest time to harvest the bait crop was from 9:30 a.m. - 10:30 p.m. (this estimate is just harvest time it does not include equipment set up and equipment clean up time).

2016-10-24 Harvest Harvested corn in the GLBRC G1 plots, all reps. Entire plot weight was determined by unloading corn from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co.

The grain harvested from the 'headland pass' was not recorded as weight of grain removed from each plot. The reason for the 15' headland pass on both end of each plot was so that we would have room to turn the combine around in the alleyway. We record a weight from all the east and west sides of all the plots however all the plot weights were joined and one weight was recorded from each plot. 2016 was the first year that the harvest plot weight was from the entire plot area not just the weight from the east side of each plot. 2017 was the second year (first year for corn) that the weight from each plot was from the entire plot area not just the weight from the east side of each plot. Total number of corn rows were determined prior to harvesting the corn to determine the width of the area harvested. At planting time in spring of 2017 we made 19 passes with a 15' JD 1730 corn planter (30 inch rows). 19 * 6 rows/pass = 114 rows. Corn was harvested with a John Deere 9410 combine. Plot weight was determined by unloading corn from the combine in to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co., equipped with three load (weigh) cells. The three load cells are located on the axle and tow tongue (hitch) of the wagon. Moisture and test weights were determined using a portable Dicky-john GAC500 XT grain analysis moisture tester.

2018-10-09 Harvest Harvested soybeans on the LTER Main Site between October 9, and October 10, 2018, treatments T1, T2, and T3; all replications. Please notes below for specific dates for individual harvest dates for each specific plot. Number of soybean rows harvested from each plot were counted and recorded to determine total area harvested. Plot weight was determined by unloading soybeans from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co. At harvest each plot was harvested as one plot area (was not harvested with the west side and the east side). Before harvesting the plot area we harvested a 15' 'headland pass' on the north and south end of each plot. The 'headland pass' area was not included in the harvested data area. The west side of each plot contained a headland pass across the entire width of the plot on the north and south end of each plot and ~ 107-110 rows of soybeans for T1-T3 and 54 rows for T4 located on the west side of each plot. The created headland was one pass across both north and south headland with the JD 9410 combine with a grain head (15 feet wide). The reason that we need to create an artificial headland was because we needed more room to turn the combine around. Grain yield and moisture from treatments 1-4 across all six replications were recorded. The micro plot area measures 50 ft (15 meters) from the north edge of the plots towards to south and 133.3 ft (40 meters) from the west edge of the plots towards the east. The micro plot area in treatments 1 and 2 that did not receive any weed control was mowed down before harvest. Harvest dates for specific plots: October 9, 2018: T1R1, T1R2, T1R3, T1R4; T2R1, T2R2, T2R3, T2R4, T2R5, and T2R6; T3R1, T3R2, T3R3, T3R4. October 10, 2018: T1R5 and 7 passes on the west side of T3R5. October 16, 2018: The remaining east side of T3R5, T3R6, and T1R6. T4: October ?, 2018.

2019-10-29 Harvest Harvested corn in the GLBRC treatment G1 and bait crop corn (very east plot rep 6, outside perimeter on south and east side and inside perimeter on north side as well as north half of old productivity study). Entire plot weight was determined by unloading corn from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co. Number of corn rows harvested from each plot were counted and recorded to determine total area harvested. Each plot had 24 rows of corn harvested has the main plot harvest data. Six rows on each side of each plot were harvested with the Kincaid plot combine and was not included in the total plot weight. Moisture and test weights were determined using grain analysis moisture tester.

2020-12-08 Harvest Harvested sorghum from rep 6 plots. Plots chopped with JD 7350 forage chopper into truck. No yield data collected. Sorghum was taken to KBS Dairy Center and will be used for bedding.

2020-10-29 Harvest Harvested corn in the GLBRC treatment G1 and bait crop corn (very east plot rep 6, outside perimeter on south and east side and inside perimeter on north side as well as north half of old productivity study). Entire plot weight was determined by unloading corn from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co. Number of corn rows harvested from each plot were counted and recorded to determine total area harvested. Each plot had 24 rows of corn harvested has the main plot harvest data. Six rows on each side of each plot were harvested with the Kincaid plot combine and was not included in the total plot weight. Moisture and test weights were determined using grain analysis moisture tester. Kellogg Dairy Staff help move and unload corn grain form trucks.

2021-09-30 Harvest Harvested soybeans on the LTER Main Site on September 30, 2021, treatments T1, and T2; all replications. T1R6 was harvested on September 29, 2021. Number of soybean rows harvested from each plot were counted and recorded to determine total area harvested. Plot weight was determined by unloading soybeans from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co. At harvest each plot was harvested as one plot area (plots were NOT harvested with the 'west' side and the 'east' side). Before harvesting the plot area we harvested a 15' 'headland pass' on the north and south end of each plot. The 'headland pass' area was NOT included in the harvested data area. The reason that we need to create an 'artificial' headland was because we needed more room to turn the combine around. The current 30 ft grass alleyway is not enough room to turn the combine around. Yes, we harvested a 15' 'headland pass' in the T1 and T2 plots however we harvested a 20' 'headland pass' in the T3 and T4 plots. Grain yield and moisture from treatments across all six replications were recorded. Moisture and test weights were determined using a portable Dicky-john GAC500 XT grain analysis moisture tester. KBS Dairy Staff helped unload soybeans from trucks.

2019-07-24 Harvest Harvested LTER Main Site Treatment T1 and T2 Winter Wheat.

2019-07-25 Harvest Harvested LTER Main Site Treatment T3 and T4 Winter Wheat.

2022-07-22 Harvest Wheat harvest of LTER main site.

2022-11-09 Harvest Harvested corn in the GLBRC treatment G1 and bait crop corn in plots 604 and 605, and bait crop around the perimeter woods. Entire plot weight was determined by unloading corn from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co. Number of corn rows harvested from each plot were counted and recorded to determine total area harvested. Each plot had 24 rows of corn harvested has the main plot harvest data. Six rows on each side of each plot were harvested with the Kincaid plot combine and was NOT included in the total plot weight (these six rows are recorded as micro-plot yield data). Moisture and test weights were determined using grain analysis moisture tester. Moisture and test weights were determined using a Dicky-john GAC2100b grain analysis moisture tester.
