1. Effect of Phosphorus and Potassium Fertilization on Corn Development and Root Distribution in Conservation TillageIn conservation tillage systems, like no-till (NT) and strip-till (ST), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) typically become vertically and/or horizontally stratified in the soil. This stratification has the potential to make P a nd K less available and to limit corn yield. The objective of this study is to determine the infl uence of tillage and P and K placement and rate on soil P and K content, soil water status, root and shoot development, and grain yield of corn. The experiment was arranged in... |
2. Minnesota Long-Term Phosphorus Management Trials: Phase I, The Build PeriodPhosphorus (P) fertilizer recommendations are usually made using one of two philosophies, Build and Maintain or Sufficiency. In recent years, the Sufficiency approach has been questioned because of concerns of reducing soil test levels and yield sustainability and whether it has the same yield potential as the Build and Maintain approach. Trials were initiated in 2010 at six locations across Minnesota to develop various soil test P Interpretation Classes in replicated experiments. The initial phase... |
