1. Potassium Management, Soil Testing and Crop Response

New field research is conducted in Iowa as issues or questions arise to assure that nutrient management guidelines are up to date and to address new issues. This article briefly summarizes two major projects with potassium (K) whose results are useful to improve the efficacy of nutrient management and crop production. One project focused on correlating soil-test K methods with response of corn and soybean to fertilization and on obtaining better estimates of the concentration of K in corn and soybean...
