The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Agricultural residue production and potentials for energy and materials services (2014, unknown): “experiments [36]”
Changes in Nitrogen Use Traits Associated with Genetic Improvement for Grain Yield of Maize Hybrids Released in Different Decades (2013, result): “This result is in partial contradiction to the data summarized by Lorenz et al. (2010), who concluded that historical gains in maize yield in the United States have been mostly accompanied by increasing stover biomass and relatively constant harvest index.”
Nutrient Uptake, Partitioning, and Remobilization in Modern, Transgenic Insect-Protected Maize Hybrids (2013, background): “Increases in maize grain yields have been accompanied by similar, relative increases in stover yield (Lorenz et al., 2010) and as a result, fertility practices that maximize grain yield are also likely to maximize stover yield.”
