This study supplied either commercial fertilizer or poultry litter to tilled or no-till production systems with their corresponding BMPs of incorporation and cover crops, respectively, to determine the P lost via surface... |

This proj ect evaluated historical soil phosphorus (P) trends in the state of Ohio by collecting historical soil data from the three largest commercial laboratories servicing Ohio to dete rmine if P levels at a county resolution are changing over time. This helps address to what extent widespread over-applications of P (either commercial or... |
