  • 2008 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agronomy
  • Agriculture
  • Ecology

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Forage, Panicum virgatum, Poaceae and Botany. All of his Agronomy and Bromus inermis, Pasture, Fodder, Perennial plant and Grazing investigations are sub-components of the entire Agronomy study. His Forage research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Hay and Germination.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Crop yield and Thinopyrum intermedium. Kenneth J. Moore combines subjects such as Andropogon, Cultivar and Germplasm with his study of Panicum virgatum. His work on Lignin, Neutral Detergent Fiber and Developmental morphology as part of general Botany research is frequently linked to Axillary bud, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • Describing and Quantifying Growth Stages of Perennial Forage Grasses (410 citations)
  • Biomass yield and quality of 20 switchgrass populations in southern Iowa, USA. (276 citations)
  • Binary Legume–Grass Mixtures Improve Forage Yield, Quality, and Seasonal Distribution (200 citations)

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

Kenneth J. Moore mostly deals with Agronomy, Forage, Biomass, Agroforestry and Panicum virgatum. His study in Dry matter, Pasture, Grazing, Perennial plant and Poaceae is carried out as part of his Agronomy studies. His studies in Forage integrate themes in fields like Field experiment, Fodder and Cultivar.

His Biomass research integrates issues from Biofuel, Crop yield and Growing season. In his study, Grassland is inextricably linked to Agriculture, which falls within the broad field of Agroforestry. His Panicum virgatum study frequently links to other fields, such as Andropogon.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (67.43%)
  • Forage (25.67%)
  • Biomass (13.79%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Agronomy (67.43%)
  • Biomass (13.79%)
  • Agroforestry (13.41%)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Biomass, Agroforestry, Kenaf and Bioenergy. His Agronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Panicum virgatum, Soil quality and Temperate climate. Kenneth J. Moore has researched Panicum virgatum in several fields, including Andropogon and Ecotype.

His work deals with themes such as Biofuel, Cultivar and Growing season, which intersect with Biomass. His research investigates the connection between Agroforestry and topics such as Cropping system that intersect with issues in Cropping. His Kenaf study combines topics in areas such as Agriculture, Hibiscus, Horticulture and Pyrolysis.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Analysis of Combined Experiments Revisited (84 citations)
  • Carbohydrates and Forage Quality (76 citations)
  • Evaluating APSIM Maize, Soil Water, Soil Nitrogen, Manure, and Soil Temperature Modules in the Midwestern United States (70 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Agriculture
  • Agronomy
  • Ecology

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Biomass, Bioenergy, Crop yield and Agroforestry. His Crop rotation study, which is part of a larger body of work in Agronomy, is frequently linked to Information storage, bridging the gap between disciplines. His studies deal with areas such as Warm season, Cultivar and Developmental morphology as well as Biomass.

The Crop yield study combines topics in areas such as Soil carbon, Sweet sorghum, Mean squared error, Range and Biofuel. His Agroforestry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Perennial plant, Cropping system and Soil quality. His Panicum virgatum research includes elements of Ecotype and Growing season.
