Abstract

Evaluates the short- and intermediate-term effects of repeatedly amending sandy soil with paper mill residuals (PMR) and composted PMR in a vegetable rotation in Wisconsin's central sands. Effects of PMR and composted PMR on total soil carbon; Changes in water-holding capacity and plant-available water (PAW); Relationship between total soil carbon and PAW.
