1. Slow-Release Fertilizer Effect on Groundwater Nitrogen Concentration in Sandy Soils under Potato ProductionCurrent nitrogen (N) fertilizer management practices for potato farming have led to elevated levels of N in the local groundwater. Slow-release fertilizer, specifically Environmentally Smart Nitrogen® (ESN®) polymer coated urea (PCU ) may reduce the amount of N leaching to groundwater; however no field scale studies have been performed in Wisconsin to validate these assertions. Field experiments were conducted at the Hancock Agricultural Research Station using Russet Burbank potato, planted in... |
2. Soybean Production Research: A National ApproachU.S. soybean growers are looking for alternative methods to increase soybean yields and recent increases in commodity prices have given producers more freedom to invest in additional crop inputs or products. Unfortunately, quality data from studies addressing multiple contemporary inputs is scarce. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effectiveness of combined soybean inputs on seed yield. These high input systems were tested in six states to evaluate their value across a broad geography.... |
