1. Changes in Extractable P and Mineral N from Soil Recieving Fertilizer or Manure from Swine Fed Tradional or Highly Available Phosphorus Corn DietsWe compared extractable P and mineral N from soils receiving inorganic fertilizer or manure from swine fed either traditional (TC) or Highly Available Phosphorus (HAP) corn diets. The study was conducted at two sites, one with conventionally tilled irrigated corn and the other with no-tillage dryland sorghum. Manure application to a no-tillage site resulted in volatilization losses of N and greater variation in nutrient availability when cornpared to incorporated manure. When expressed as a percentage... |
2. Using Reflectance Sensors to Predict Nitrogen Needs of CottonObjectives 1) Develop on-the-go N recommendations based on analysis of the reflectance sensor readings. 2) Determine the sensor model, height, and wa velength that give the best prediction for sidedress N. 3) Determine the best growth stag e for sensor-based sidedressing Relevance There is great spatial variability of N in the soil. Cotton fields that receive a blanket rate of nitrogen, ignoring the vari ability, will have areas of excessi ve growth. This unnecessary growth raises production cost... |
