1. Soybean Chlorosis Management ProgramChlorosis in soybeans is a problem wherever soybeans are grown on high pH soils. In Nebraska, most of the soybeans are grown in the southeastern half of the state. Here the upland soils are neutral to moderately acid; however, many of the river valley soils are alkaline. Thus, chlorosis is a problem in the Platte and Elkhorn River Valleys and to a lesser extent, in the Republican and Loup River Valleys. Not all soils in the river valleys are prone to chlorosis OF soybeans even though many are alkaline... |
2. Effect of Intensive Management Practices on Wheat Yields and ProfitabilityConsiderable interest in improving wheat yields and profitability has been shown throughout the U.S. over the past ten years. Much of this interest has resulted from the dramatic yield increases achieved by English producers during that time - an annual increase of 5.0 bushellacre per year (Figure 1). During that same time period, wheat producers in the U.S. have shown a much lower rate of increase in wheat yields - 1.02 bushellacre per year (Figure 2). Missouri growers have been no exception to... |
3. The Growth of MEY in Spring Wheat CountryAny ag orientated news source looked at in recent weeks in North Dakota or western Minnesota has had some kind of a MEY related story. The MEY usually has been identified as 19naximum economic yield," but recently some use of I1most efficient yield" has been seen. Yes, spring wheat country has a new buzz acronym - MEY. How did such a buzz term for tbis amount of press/news coverage develop in the spring wheat region? The kickoff for MEY club deve1-t ocaured on November 25, 1986. Before that was possible,... |
4. Influence of Tillage and Placement on the Location of Phosphorus in the Root ZoneIn recent years, the ridge-till planting operation and the use of the chisel plow have developed into the most widely accepted planting systems for conservation tillage in Minnesota. While there is opportunity to incorporate plant nutrients in the chisel plow system, previous studies have shown that this incorporation is shallow when compared to the moldboard plow system. The ridge-till system, on the other hand, offers only limited possibilities for fertilizer incorporation. Typical broadcast applications... |
5. Nitrogen Test Development Soil N Levels in 1989The developnent of a N test that can be used for fertilizer recamrendations of corn in the eastern areas of Minnesota is needed for environmental and econcmic reasons. A multi-site project was initiated in 1989 to extensively examine soil sampling time and depth as well as N forms in the soil. This will then enable statistical models to be develaped using one or mre of the variables. A subset of the entire project is reported--concentrating on the sites allowing the calibration of the soil N tests... |
6. Best Management Practices for Nitrogen in MinnesotaAtrention to nirrogen (N) nlanagemerzt and to rhe influence of N on ground- rvarer qzraliry was significanrly enhanced in Minnesota wirh the passage of the Conlprehensive Groundwater Protection Acr in 1989. That legislative act mandated the fonnarion of u Nirrogen Fertilizer Task Force whose duty was ro study the eflecrs and impacrs on water resources fro,n N fenilizer use so rhar besr management practice (BMPs), a fenilizer managenlenr plan, and N fem'l- izer use regulations could be developed.... |
7. A Nitrogen Soil Test for CornIn the past decade, many states have started including a soil test when making N recommendations. In order for a soil N test to be useful, it must provide information that is not known or incorporated when making N recommendations without a test. If a test does not provide explainable, qunlltifiable infarmation. the tcs: !cses its usefghess. In Minnesota, a falllspring preplant N test has been used in the western tier of counties, which have lower rainfall than the rest of the state, for many years.... |
8. Regionalizing Fertilizer Recommendations for North Dakota, South Dakota, and Western MinnesotaFertilizer recommendations have varied between adjacent states. The inconsistencies at state lines made educational efforts in soil fertility more difficult for companies doing business across state lines. In an effort to alleviate these problems, the agronomists working with fertilizer calibration data and recommendations from the three states of North Dakota, South Dakota and Minnesota put together a recommendation system which could be used in a large part of all three states. The basic "core"... |
9. Changes in Extractable P and Mineral N from Soil Recieving Fertilizer or Manure from Swine Fed Tradional or Highly Available Phosphorus Corn DietsWe compared extractable P and mineral N from soils receiving inorganic fertilizer or manure from swine fed either traditional (TC) or Highly Available Phosphorus (HAP) corn diets. The study was conducted at two sites, one with conventionally tilled irrigated corn and the other with no-tillage dryland sorghum. Manure application to a no-tillage site resulted in volatilization losses of N and greater variation in nutrient availability when cornpared to incorporated manure. When expressed as a percentage... |
10. Greenhouse Gases and Carbon Sequestration Where They Fit With the Fertilizer IndustryFew things elicit more debate than the weather, and whether it is changing. Farmers in Nebraska are klly convinced that global warming is real. while farmers in Michigan arid Ontario aren't nearly as sure after this growing season. I am not going to debate whether climate change is real, or whether it is good or bad, but rather provide some background on the whole issue and how farmers and the fertilizer industry may be affected. Current scientific consensus is that greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere... |
11. Fertilizer and Manure Management Comparisons for Corn-Soybean Rotataions in MinnesotaA study was designed to evaluate the impact of P sources (fertilizer and manure), nutrient application methods (broadcast and subsurface bands), P rates (crop removal and twice crop removal), and tillage systems (no-till and conventional) on corn-soybean response. Results to date show higher yields using manure as compared to fertilizer as the P source. This could be attributed to a higher rate of P being applied using the manure. No-till systems measured greater yields in 1999 and 2000, primarily... |
12. An Overview of On-Farm Nitrogen Rate ResearchBecause crop advisors, farmers, and some in the fertilizer industry questioned the University's N recommendations as being too low and raised concerns that the N calibration research had been done primarily in small plots on University Experiment Station land. numerous N calibration studies for corn after soybeans were conducted on farmers' fields in southern Minnesota and northeastern Iowa from 1989 through 2002 to validate present N recommendations. On-farm replicated trials were conducted by University... |
13. Diagnosis of Nitrogen Deficiency in Maize and the influence of Hybrid and Plant DensityThe precise diagnosis of maize N status has proven to be a difficult task because of annual 1 variation in internal N-use efficiency (kg grain kg- N uptake) and temporal change in N concentration in plant tissue. Analysis of leaf N concentration (g N leaf) has not been a consistently successful N diagnostic because of temporal and hybrid differences in specific leaf weight (SLW=g leaf me2 leaf). An alternative N diagnostic; specific leaf nitrogen (g N m-2 leaf), is unrelated to leaf mass. Maximum... |
14. Field Scale Variability of Corn Yield response Functions to Fertilizer Nitrogen ApplicationVariable rate nitrogen (N) application assumes that corn response to N fertilizer varies within a field. However, this hypothesis has not been formally tested yet. Field variation of corn response to N fertilizer and economically optimum N fertilizer rates (EON) were assessed in on- farm experiments throughout central Illinois. Fields (16 to 32 ha.) were subdivided into 13 to 20 areas. Five nitrogen rates were randomized within these areas in 28 kg N increments (2 rates) and decrements (2 rates)... |
15. Utilizing Inhibitor Technology to reduce Ammonia Volatilization Losses from Urea Sources Applied to Conservation TillageA severe limitation to urea fertilizers and the ureacomponent in livestock wastes is the high potential for volatile loss of nitrogen (N) as ammonia. Losses are especially severe when the urea-containing materials are surface applied with no or only limited subsequent incorporation. Extensive losses are also observed when urea is applied to warm soils that are moist and undergoing rapid drylng. Soil pH, the presence of an active microbial population, and soil texture are also known to impact volatilization... |
16. A New Approach for Predicting Soil Nitrate Using Imagery and Non Imagery Information- Model Development and ValidationSoil nitrate, a key nutrient for optirnal gowth and development of crop, can be predicted using a new approach based on imagery and non imagery information. This paper presents an algorithm to predict soil nitrate using i~nagery and 11011 imagery infoi-~nation. LANDSAT TM satellite image, topography, soil electi-ical conductivity, crop yield, and soil type have been used to develop prediction models based on atificial intelligence technique called neural network. The models have been developed and... |
17. Applied Nutrient Management Research at Pioneer FarmAs part of the Wisconsin Agricultural Stewardship Initiative (WASI). Pioneer Fann serties as an applied systems research and education fCm with a mission to collect and disseminate high- quality environmental and economic baseline data to students, producers, and regulatory personnel. This paper outlines the current farm operations, methods and types of data collection, current results from ongoing monitoring projccts and 1.esearc11, and details how the data is being used to support science-based... |
18. Balancing Agronomy and Environment: N Recommendations in Ontario for the 21st CenturyThe goal of a fertilizer program may be to maximize yields from each ficld, or to maximize profit, or to minimize environmental impact. Recent instances of groundwater contamination with nitrate have focused attention on the need for source water protection, and agriculture has been implicated as one of the sources of nitrate contamination. This has lead to concerns that environmental rules could reduce the profitability of crop production, by limiting fertilizer use and hence, crop yields. Additional... |
19. Scale of Measurement Effects on Phosphorus Runoff Losses from CroplandAs phosphorus (P)-based nutrient management planning becomes necessary for some farms in Wisconsin, it will be critical to have reliable, research-based planning tools. The Wisconsin P- hdex provides one method for preparing P-based nutrient management plans. The P-Index was developed largely from small plot-scale data showing the relationships between various site and management variables and runoff P losses. Thls study was conducted to compare runoff composition measurements at the subwatershed... |
20. Evaluation of the Illinois Soil Nitrogen Test in the North Central RegionData from 96 locations across the North Central Region was complied to evaluate the usefulness of the Illinois soil nitrogen test (ISNT) in identifying fields where corn will not respond to additional N fertilizer and predicting the yield optimizing N rate (YONR) for each field. The ISNT could not accurately predict non-responsive sites, nor could it predict YONR. Sub-setting the data based on soil drainage class and previous crop did not improve the predictive capability of the ISNT. The ISNT was... |
21. Utilizing the Greenseeker to Evaluate Spring Wheat Growth and YieldThere is currently little information on the use of existing sensor-based technologies for in- season application of nitrogen (N) to spring wheat (Triticttm aestivztm L.) in the northern Great Plains. Over the past decade researchers in the southern Great Plains have developed the Greenseeker as a tool for on-the-go N application to winter wheat. Field experiments were established in Brookings and Gettysburg, SD to evaluate the Greenseeker Hand Held optical sensor (NTech Industries, Ukiah, CA) for... |
22. Effect of Biosolids Application On Plant Available NutrientsBiosolids are a by-product of municipal wastewater treatment process which is extensively treated to meet all applicable federal and state regulations so that they can it can be safely applied to land. Approximately, 7.9 million dry metric tons of biosolids are produced annually in the United States (U.S.) and over 55% of this amount is beneficially utilized through land application (NEBRA, 2007). Farmland application of biosolids is considered to be one of the most economical and environmentally... |
23. The Use of Organic Soil Amendments for Winter Wheat Production in KentuckyMost animal manures are land-applied in the fall and spring after crops have been harvested or prior to planting. Surface application of manures in the fall have more potential for nitrogen (N) loss when applied to fallow land compared to land cropped to winter wheat. This study was conducted to determine the N availability of fall applied organic fertilizers and resulting wheat grain yields compared to urea-N fertilizer. The effects of three organic fertilizer sources and rate on wheat yield and... |
24. Determining In-season Nitrogen Requirements for Maize Using Model and Sensor Based ApproachesThere is great value in determining the optimum quantity and timing of nitrogen (N) application to meet crop needs while minimizing losses. Applying a portion of the total N during the growing season allows for adjustments which can be responsive to actual field conditions which result in varying N needs. Two methods of determining in-season N needs were evaluated, a model-based approach and a crop canopy sensor approach. The Maize-N model was developed to estimate the economically optimum N fertilizer... |
25. Nitrogen Management of Temporary Waterlogged Soil to Improve Corn Production and Reduce Environmental N LossDuring the 2011 growing season excessive soil moisture in the Unites States accounted for at least 30% of the total crop loss to environmental stresses resulting in more than $3 billion dollars in insurance indemnities paid to farmers. The objectives of this study were to: (i) assess grain yield and N silage uptake for both rescue and non-rescue treatments of different enhanced efficiency products, (ii) determine soil N content among treatments throughout the growing season, and (iii) evaluate PCU... |
26. Micronutrients Fertilization for Corn and Soybean: A Research UpdateEssential plant nutrients such as boron (B), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), zinc (Zn), and others are absorbed by crops in very small amounts and are referred to as micronutrients. A deficiency can have a large impact on crop yield, however, because they perform important physiological functions. The soil parent material and soil formation processes over time along with effects of soil moisture, aeration, and temperature can significantly influence the amount of plant-available... |
27. Nitrogen Contribution from Different Manure SourcesNitrogen fertilizer equivalencies (NFE) from manure are influenced by manure type, application method, crop selection, and environmental conditions. Much of the research to determine NFE of manure was conducted in tilled systems but many producers use no-tillage (NT) to reduce soil erosion and labor requirements. The objective of this study was to determine NFE for different manure types used in corn (Zea mays L.) cropping systems. Manures consisted of composted swine manure (CSM), poultry litter... |
28. Potassium in Corn Starter Fertilizers RevisitedDespite the importance of potassium in crop nutriti on, there has been relatively little assessment of potassium in starter fertilizer s, and particularly where sufficie nt preplant broadcast K has been applied to meet the needs of the crop. Initial re sults from the first year of a multi-year study in Southern Ontario showed that corn yields were increased by about 0.4 t ha -1 by the inclusion of potassium in a starter fertilizer on low P and K testing soils, above the response to added P. Further... |
29. Hypoxia in the Northern Gulf of Mexico- Causes and ConsequencesSeasonally severe and persistent hypoxia, or low dissolved oxygen concentrations, occur on the inner to mid-Louisiana continental shelf to the west of the Mississippi River and Atchafalaya River deltas. The areal extent during mid-summer surveys of 1993- 1997 ranged from 15.800 to 18,200 km2. The shelfwide distribution in mid-summer for 1985 to 1992 averaged 8,000 to 9,000 km2. Hypoxia occurs below the pycnocline from as early as late February through early October, but is most widespread, persistent... |
30. Understanding Spatial Variability in Cover Crop Growth and DecompositionIn many agricultural landscapes, topographic variability leads to downslope movement of soil, water, and nutrients, causing heterogeneity in both crop yield and soil fertility throughout production fields. Cover crops can slow these processes, but the impact of topography on cover crop growth and residue persistence is uncertain. We measured the growth, mixture biomass composition, and decomposition of a cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) cover crop, and cereal rye /crimson clover (Trifolium... S.J. Leuthold, M. Salmeron, O. Wendroth, E. Haramoto, H. Poffenbarger |
31. Optimizing Nitrogen Rate to Maximize Winter Malting Barley Grain Yield While Meeting ProteinWinter malting barley (Hordeum vulgare) acreage is increasing across Ohio due to demand from the local craft brewing industry; however, grain used for this market must pass specific quality requirements. The objective of this study was to identify optimum spring nitrogen rates for winter malting barley that maximize yield while meeting protein requirements. Small plot trials were conducted at three locations in Ohio: Northwest Agriculture Research Station (NWARS) in Custar, Western Agriculture... G. Mcglinch, L. Lindsey, R. Shrestha, M. Hankinson |
32. Does Starter Fertilizer Benefit Late Planted Corn?Starter fertilizers are used by producers to help overcome wet and cool soils often encountered with early planted corn. Early planted corn in no-tilled fields and limited drainage typically have the greatest chance of response from starter fertilizers. Starter fertilizers can range from a mixture of UAN, ammonium polyphosphate (APP), and other fertilizers to low salt (LS) formulations containing N, P, K and various micronutrients. Some that promote LS starter fertilizer products claim that UAN... E. Ritchey, H. York |
33. Not All Litter is Created Equal: Differences in Nitrogen Mineralization Among Broiler Litter TypesOver three fourths of U.S. broiler chicken production is located in the Southeast and generates a substantial amount of broiler litter (BL). Broiler litter is a mixture of bedding material and manure that can be a valuable nutrient source for row crop production when properly used. New technologies provide farmers with the opportunity to use a combination of BL and inorganic fertilizers with minimal environmental impact. The first part of the project evaluated integrated N management systems that... L. Fitzgerald, E. Ritchey, J. Mcgrath, J. Shockley, H. Poffenbarger |
34. Sulfur Fertility for Kentucky Agriculture: An UpdateSulfur (S) is an essential secondary nutrient for plant growth and is involved with the synthesis of chlorophyll, hormones, and a structural component of proteins. The need for supplemental S fertilizer in Kentucky has been questioned for many years due to lower atmospheric S deposition, fewer fertilizer impurities, soil test laboratory recommendations, and greater crop yields, but field research has not supported this concern. Recent tissue surveys in wheat and alfalfa across Kentucky... E. Ritchey, J. Gray |
35. Cover Crops and Tillage Interaction on Claypan Soils of Southern IllinoisIncreased nutrient leaching due to agricultural practices such as tillage and fertilization is a significant environmental concern. Nitrogen (N) mineralization stimulated by tillage can increase the risk for nitrate leaching before subsequent crops have an opportunity to take up the N released by microbial activity. An alternative measure for reducing potential nutrient loss via leaching and runoff is use of cover crops (CCs). A field experiment was conducted at the Southern Illinois University’s... S. Gurbir, J. Schoonover, K. Williard, K. Gauge |
36. Cereal Rye and Hairy Vetch Cover Crops for Improving Soil and Water QualitySoil and water quality benefits of cover crops (CCs) have been inferred only from plot scale studies. Replicating cover crops at the watershed scale and expecting similar results to that of plot scale studies need further research. Therefore, cover crop study at Southern Illinois was carried at the plot as well as the watershed scale. The objectives of plot scale study were (i) to evaluate the contribution of fertilizer and soil organic matter (SOM) to N leaching under corn/soybean cropping... S. Gurbir, K. Williard, J. Schoonover, R. Cook, R. Mcelroy |
37. An Integrated Approach to Understanding Poultry Litter Use in Corn-Soybean Production SystemsThe majority of poultry litter (PL) in Kentucky is generated in the western third of the state, the same area that produces approximately 80% of corn, soybean, and wheat. This PL is applied to row crop fields as a nutrient source. Producers and commodity board representatives were concerned with reported nutrient availability coefficients, nutrient value, and long-term use of PL. Four field sites in a NT corn-soybean rotation were identified in the fall of 2012 with low to medium soil test values... E. Ritchey, E. Haramoto, C. Bradley |
38. Project Sense: Sensors for the Efficient Use of Nitrogen and Stewardship of the Environment. An On-Farm Research Effort to Increase Adoption of Sensor Based N ManagementLow nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) has been attributed to several factors including asynchrony between nitrogen (N) fertilizer application, crop demand, and spatial variability (Shanahan et al., 2008). Sidedress applied N synchronizes crop uptake demand for N, but does not address the spatial and temporal variability that exists in a field year to year. Active crop canopy sensors provide an ability to monitor and respond to spatial and temporal N variability for a given field. A three-year project,... B. Krienke, R. Ferguson, J. Luck, L. Thompson, J. Parrish, N. Mueller, T. Mieno, J. Crowther, T. Shaver, T. Ingram, D. Krull, K. Glewen |
39. Fall Nitrogen for Winter Wheat Production?Fall nitrogen (N) applications are typically not recommended in Kentucky unless previous corn yields exceed 30 bu/A more than expected or when wheat is planted later than optimal in combination with a wet fall. In 2016, much of Kentucky experienced this combination of yield and environmental conditions. A study was initiated to test the need for fall applied N and how much fall N may be needed. Wheat was planted at recommended (normal) dates and then at dates that would be considered later than... E. Ritchey, J. Grove |
40. Reevaluating Potassium Recommendations for Soybean Production in KentuckyFertility recommendations from land grant universities are typically lower than private soil test laboratories and lead producers to question the adequacy of current recommendations. Further, soil samples analyzed at UK Regulatory Services Soil Testing Laboratory indicate that average state-wide soil test potassium (K) levels are declining approximately 1 lb K/A/year. The reason for this decline is not known, but some suspect it might be due to increased crop yields while maintaining historical... E. Ritchey, J.H. Grove, J.M. Mcgrath |
41. Applying N to legume-containing summer annual forage mixturesSummer annual forages are costly to implement but can provide quality grazing when cool-season perennial forages are less productive. Increasing botanical diversity may increase system productivity, thereby improving economic efficiency. However, there is debate as to whether annual legumes supply associated grasses with fixed N, leading to uncertainty regarding N application rates to legume containing summer annual forage mixtures. This experiment supplied three summer annual forage treatments... K. Mercier, C. Teutsch, S. Smith, E. Ritchey, K. Burdine, E. Vanzant |
42. Seed Germination as Influenced by Fertilizer Type, Seed Coating, and Duration of StorageOverseeding forages into existing pastures and hayfields helps maintain dense stands and sustain productivity. Fertilizer applications to stimulate early spring growth provides an opportunity to blend forage seed with fertilizer. Additionally, seed treatments are often used to improve the ability to handle small seeds and to improve percent germination over raw or uncoated seed. Little is known about how seed coating, fertilizer type or duration of exposure to fertilizer will influence seed germination.... E. Ritchey, C. Teutsch |
43. Effect of Liquid Calcium as a Liming Agent in SoilMaintaining proper soil pH is the foundation of a soil fertility program and influences plant productivity, nutrient availability, and herbicide activity. This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of liquid calcium compared to known liming agents to raise the pH of soil. Test plots that compare liquid calcium to proven liming agents were conducted in 17 counties across the state of Kentucky on cool season annual grass pastures. Two experimental protocols were developed... B. Setchell, E. Ritchey |
44. N, S and Micronutrient (B + Zn) Interactions in Soft Red Winter Wheat NutritionThis work is intended to answer certain questions that result from the implementation of a multi-element wheat nutrition program. Nitrogen rate is a fundamental driver of wheat yield and quality. However, the impact/value of S or the micronutrients, which are likely components of a more integrated wheat nutrient management program, is not clear.The main study design included 4 rates of N (40, 80, 120 and 160 lb N/acre), 2 rates of S (0 and 10 lb S/acre), and 2 rates of the micronutrient ‘package’... J. Grove, E. Ritchey, J. Shockley |
45. Does Nitrogen Management in Winter Wheat Affects Its Yield and Nitrate-N Leaching in a Wheat-Soybean Double Cropping System?Conventional corn (Zea mays L.)-soybean (Glycine max L.) rotation contributes to nitrate-N and phosphate leaching to waterbodies causing water quality concerns. Two strategies that could minimize N and P losses include (i) incorporating winter rye (Secale cereale L.) (WR) as a cover crop to capture residual nutrients or (ii) intensifying the corn-soybean rotation with winter wheat (WW) (Triticum aestivum L.) (Double cropping). Double cropping WW at a right N...

46. The Alfalfa Yield Plateau: is Soil Fertility the Cause?Alfalfa is a perennial forage legume known for its ability to produce high quality hay, earning it the title the “Queen of Forages.” It is produced across the United States as feed for the beef, dairy, and equine industries. During the 1950s, alfalfa yields rose exponentially due to advances in technologies such as improved varieties, synthetic fertilizers, and pesticides. However, yields plateaued at approximately 3.3 tons per acre in the 1980s for reasons not fully understood and... W. Fleming, E. Ritchey, C. Teutsch, J. Grove |
47. Short Term Effect of Double Cropping and Cover Cropping on Soil Physical PropertiesIntegrating cover crops into corn (Zea mays L.)-soybean (Glycine max L.) rotation has been promoted as a sustainable practice to reduce soil erosion, enhance soil health, and improve agricultural sustainability. However, growers are less inclined to include cover crops into their cash crop rotations especially winter cereals such as winter rye (Secale cereale L.) behind corn. One strategy to minimize the fallow period in corn-soybean rotation is by intensifying the corn-soybean... F. Sheikhi shahrivar, O. Ola, O. Guzel, K. Gage, K. Williard, J. Schoonover, S. Mueller, A. Sadeghpour |
48. Updating Nitrogen, Phosphate and Potash Rate Recommendations (AGR-1) for Kentucky Grain GrowersFor UK soil test lab users, soil test phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) have been slowly declining for several decades, suggesting recommended ‘maintenance’ rates (initiated in 1992) were insufficient. Adjusting for modern grain P and K concentrations and increasing yield-driven nutrient removal, we raised corn, soybean and wheat maintenance rates by 10 to 20 lb P2O5 and 10 to 30 lb K2O per acre, depending on the individual crop. Corn nitrogen (N) rate recommendations had not been... J. Grove, E. Ritchey |
49. The Effect of Nitrogen Management in Winter Wheat on Nitrous Oxide Emissions in a Wheat-Soybean Double Cropping SystemNitrogen fertilizer management plays a critical role in nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions in agricultural production systems. This study investigated the impact of nitrogen application in a winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)-soybean (Glycine max L.) double cropping system on winter wheat biomass production, grain yield, and N₂O emissions. The experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Research Center (ARC), Carbondale in Southern Illinois University, IL using a Randomized Complete... O. Ola, O. Guzel, K. Gage, K. Williard, J.
