1. Phosphorus and Potassium Place in Corn-Soybean Systems in the Midwest: Possibilities with Automatic Guidance Technology Global positioning system teclmology available to the public has become more accurate in recent years. Current Real Time Kinematic (RTK) techniques allow relative positions of equipment to be recorded with 3/8 - 2 in. precision (Dana, 1991). Being able to return to the same location in the field year after year with high precision may have implications for corn-soybean systems where banded applications of phosphorus (P) and/or potassium (K) are made at a time other than at planting. The importance... Download paper
2. Phosphorus Placement For Corn, Soybeans, and Wheat Root-Soil Interface Transport Pathways Three mechanisms are commonly cited for how nutrients reach plant roots: 1) root interception, 2) mass flow, and 3) diffusion. Root interception occurs when a plant root, as it grows, comes into direct contact with a nutrient. Quantities of nutrients reaching plant roots in this manner are estimated to be proportional to the volume of soil occupied by roots (Barber et al., 1963). For instance, if roots occupy one percent of the soil volume, then the quantity... Download paper
3. Nitrogen Loss from Sprinkler Applied Beef Feedlot Effluent Loss of nitrogen from sprinkler applied beef feedlot effluent can be costly for both the producer and the environment. Sprinkler application of effluent is common throughout the Great Plains, though little work has focused specifically on N losses from beef feedlot effluent. We quantified ammonia (NH 3) and nitrous oxide (N2O) losses from beef feedlot effluent applications under field conditions including variations in soil pH, soil water content, ammonium (NH 4+) concentration of the effluent, and...
