Adaptive nutrient management makes sense!

March 12, 2026
Karl Czymmek, Quirine M. Ketterings, and Kirsten Workman

Have you ever wondered if more fertilizer could have given you higher corn yields? Most dairy farmers would reply with a solid yes, as it is a given that corn needs nitrogen (N) to grow and yield can vary quite a bit from field to field and year to year.

Making sense of your dairy’s greenhouse gas footprint

March 12, 2026
Karl Czymmek, Olivia Godber, and Quirine M. Ketterings

Greenhouse gas footprint tools on farms

March 8, 2021
Karl Czymmek and Olivia Godber
Carbon footprint, carbon neutral, net zero, greenhouse gases, methane emissions; what does it all mean? The phrase “carbon footprint” is a little misleading. The carbon footprint of a person, a farm, or a product, such as milk, is the total of all greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted on an annual basis.

Food waste coming on the farm? Consider where the nutrients go and manure processing for nutrient export

March 8, 2021
Karl Czymmek, Tim Terry, and Peter Wright

March 8, 2021

March 8, 2021
Jonathan Berlingeri, Karl Czymmek, and Quirine M. Ketterings

Next steps for better silage yield maps

March 6, 2020
Karl Czymmek, Quirine M. Ketterings, Dilip Kharel, and Ben Lehman
