Dwayne G. Westfall

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Agriculture
• Ecology
• Fertilizer

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, No-till farming, Cropping system, Soil water and Soil organic matter. Agronomy connects with themes related to Chlorophyll in his study. His No-till farming research includes themes of Soil carbon, Cropping, Crop residue, Dryland farming and Tillage.

His Cropping system study combines topics in areas such as Ustochrept and Crop rotation. Dwayne G. Westfall combines subjects such as Fertilizer, Crop yield and Field with his study of Soil water. His Soil organic matter research incorporates themes from Center pivot irrigation and Variable Rate Application.

His most cited work include:

• Surface Soil Physical Properties After Twelve Years of Dryland No-Till Management (173 citations)
• Dryland cropping intensification: a fundamental solution to efficient use of precipitation (169 citations)
• Economic Feasibility of Variable-Rate Nitrogen Application Utilizing Site-Specific Management Zones (153 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Agronomy, Soil water, Precision agriculture, No-till farming and Fertilizer. His studies deal with areas such as Soil organic matter and Soil test as well as Agronomy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Environmental chemistry, Sulfuric acid, Surface runoff and Nitrogen cycle.

His study in Precision agriculture is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Crop yield and Irrigation. His No-till farming study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Agroforestry, Summer fallow, Mineralization, Crop residue and Tillage. His Fertilizer study also includes fields such as

• Loam which intersects with area such as Aridisol,
• Greenhouse which intersects with area such as Crop.

He most often published in these fields:

• Agronomy (65.98%)
• Soil water (29.90%)
• Precision agriculture (21.65%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

• Agronomy (65.98%)
• Agroforestry (12.37%)
• Agroecosystem (7.22%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His main research concerns Agronomy, Agroforestry, Agroecosystem, Manure management and Soil water. His work deals with themes such as No-till farming, Dryland salinity, Crop residue and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, which intersect with Agronomy. His work is dedicated to discovering how Agroforestry, Soil organic matter are connected with Crop rotation, Water-use efficiency, Conventional tillage, Steppe and Precision agriculture and other disciplines.

His work carried out in the field of Agroecosystem brings together such families of science as Systems research, Integrated pest management and Crop management. The study incorporates disciplines such as Grain yield and Site specific management in addition to Manure management. His research investigates the connection between Soil water and topics such as Surface runoff that intersect with issues in Leaching and Soil quality.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

• Evaluating Farmer Developed Management Zone Maps for Precision Farming (37 citations)
• Soil sorptivity enhancement with crop residue accumulation in semiarid dryland no-till agroecosystems (26 citations)
• Precision Manure Management across Site-Specific Management Zones: Grain Yield and Economic Analysis (13 citations)
