1. Corn Yield Response to Fall and Spring Applied Controlled- Release Urea vs. Spring Conventional UreaNitrogen (N) application to corn has been proven to increase yields, but concerns about nitrate-N in ground and surface water have led to investigation of controlled-release N fertilizer. The objective of these experiments is to compare corn grain response to controlled-release urea (ESN) and conventional urea. Two field studies are being conducted at two locations in Iowa and corn yield data will be reported from 2003-2005. All N treatments were hand broadcast in 30 lb N/a increments from 0 lbs.... |
2. Nitrogen Fertilizer and Irrigation Effects on Soil and Plant Nitrogen DynamicsCropping systems can be exposed to different nitrogen (N) and water availabilities for a variety of reasons. Both N and water have been shown to have both positive and negative; direct and indirect effects on soil and plant N dynamics. Given that agronomic crops require large amounts of N to achieve high yields and often acquire a majority of their N from soil nitrogen mineralization (N min), it is important to understand how nitrogen and water interactions alter soil and plant N dynamics.
