The Solar Corridor Crop System: Implementation and Impacts presents
a case-study format on the planning and implementation of
alternative cropping systems designed to maximize incident sunlight
and bio-support of all crops in a rotation system. The book
describes the basic component of the system, an increased access
point of incident sunlight between each row or pairs of rows that
enables a more uniform vertical distribution of incident sunlight
to chloroplasts within the entire corn leaf canopy. While the
production environment and environment specific genetics determine
the performance potential of this principle, by maximizing the
principles that light is basic to crop yield, a solar corridor
ultimately contributes to increased grain yield. Written by experts
who were integral in the development of solar corridor systems, and
providing real-world examples of the methods, challenges and future
prospects, this book will be valuable for those seeking to increase
yield-per-acre through both primary and cover-crops.
