1. Nitrogen Recalibration for Wheat in North DakotaThe general formula for determining N fertilizer ra te in North Dakota for about thirty-five years has been N-rate = (2.5 X Yield Potential (or Yield G oal) less credits from previous crops and soil test nitrate-N from a 2-foot soil core composite. Historically high fertilizer N costs and the ability to fertilize within fiel ds rather than whole field N management has resulted in a reexamination of N calibration data, and an effort to expand the modern N calibration database with new field experiments.... |
2. Nitrogen Recalibration for Wheat in North DakotaThe rise in grain prices and fertilizer costs, as well as the need for more soil-specific recommendations has spurred recent research into N response of wheat in North Dakota. Combining data from 1970 to 1990, together with recent studies has shown that new recommendations are in order. There is a rela tionship of wheat yield to available N. The relationship is better when residual soil nitrate is considered. Different areas of the state partition out with different response curves. Using the 'return... |
3. Nitrogen Recalibration for Spring Wheat and Durum in North DakotaNorth Dakota will begin using new fertilizer r ecommendations beginning Dec. 1, 2009. Previous recommendations required a yield guess by growers with no rega rd to economics of nitrogen application. The new recommendations recogni ze different N response curves with yield and grain protein within three state agri-climatology zones. The reco mmendations use the "return to N" method, which vary the N recommendation based on crop price and N costs. The resulting rate is adjusted based on... D. Franzen, G. Endres, J. Lukach, R.
