1. Improving Corn Yield Potential with Banded Phosphorus FertilizerHigh fertilizer costs and concerns about water quality issues have caused many Midwest corn producers to take a greater interest in improving the efficiency of phosphorus (P) fertilizer applications. The objective of this research was to determine the effects of P source, rate and placement on P use efficiency in high-yield corn production systems. The experiment was conducted in 2013 at two locations in Illinois. Two P fertilizer sources (mono-ammonium phosphate (MAP, 11-52-0) or an enhanced MAP... |
2. Cover Crop Species and Planting Methods Influence on Corn N Requirement in Southern IllinoisIt is well established that planting cover crops prior to corn (Zea mays L.) can influence soil temperature, moisture, and nitrogen (N) dynamics. These changes in soil along with the effects of cover crop on corn plant population can influence corn grain yield and N requirement. Two strategies to facilitate corn establishment and avoid N immobilization especially in winter cereal cover crops is by mixing cover crop species or skipping the corn row (precision planting). A randomized complete... A. Sadeghpour, C. Kula, G. Sener, C. Vick |
