1. Can Soil Information Better Inform Canopy Sensor Algorithms for Corn?Corn production is often limited by the loss of nitrogen (N) due to leaching, volatilization and denitrification. The use of canopy sensors for making in-season N fertilizer applications has been proven effective in matching plant N requirements with periods of rapid N uptake (V7-V11), reducing the amount of N lost to these processes. However, N recommendation algorithms used in conjunction with canopy sensor measurements have not proven accurate in many fields of the U.S. Cornbelt, resulting in... , N.R. Kitchen, J.

2. How Agronomic Management Affects Soil Nitrous Oxide EmissionsThe effects of crop and soil management practices on soil emissions of non-carbon dioxide (CO2) greenhouse gases (GHGs) such as nitrous oxide (N2O) are highly variable, and long-term field data are limited. Management strategies that impact nitrogen (N) mineralization are also likely to affect how N is lost to the atmosphere as N2O gas. This presentation covers the agroecosystem soil N cycling concepts leading to losses as N2O as well as... V.L. Jin, M.R. Schmer, B.J. Wienhold |
