1. Corn Nitrogen Management Following Cover Crops and the Microbial ResponseCover crops (CCs) may provide tools for fertilizer management and opportunities to influence soil biological communities. However, corn (Zea mays L.) growth and microbial response remain unclear when corn nitrogen (N) management strategies are practiced in combination with specific CCs. Field studies were conducted in 2015 and 2016 to evaluate the effects of no CC, Daikon radish [Raphanus sativus (L). var. The Buster], and Forage oat [Avena sativa (L.) var. Magnum]... K. Steinke, J.

2. County-Level Phosphorus Balances for 2017 in IllinoisCropland phosphorus (P) balances (manure and fertilizer P minus crop P removal) are great sustainability tools to assess long-term managements at farm, county, and state levels. Our objectives were to estimate county, regional, and state-level cropland P balances for Illinois in 2017. Based on the census data in 2017, Illinois county P balance ranged from -14.38 to 36 lb/acre/yr. Overall, Illinois had a negative P balance at about -3 lb/acre/yr. About 71% of counties, had a negative P balance,... X. Liu, S. Xu, A. Margenot, A. Sadeghpour, O. Zandvakili, M. Guzel |
