1. Basic Considerations of Soil Compaction, Tillage, and Crop ProblemsSoil compaction is one of the mosc challenging variables in crop production in the Midwest. It affects early crop growth and can lead to yield reductions. The most unusual aspect of soil compaction is the variety of crop symptoms that can develop. Few absolute answers are available on the topic of soil coapac- tion. Our research is lixited to the effects of different soil conditions on yields and some early synptoms that can be caused by soil compact ion. We have developed three principles that... G.C.

2. Comparison of Nitrogen Recommendation Models for Corn in Two Cropping SystemsSeveral lnodels exist to generate N recommendations, and the model selected can have both economical and environmental implications. A study was initiated in 1998 to compare the response of corn to N in two ci-opping systenls (corn following corn and corn following soybeans). All plots received a starter N rate of 45 kg N ha-' (2 x 2 placement). and five rates of sidedress N (0, 22, 90, 157, and 224 kg N hi') were applied at gro~vth stage V6 either as anhydrous arnmonia or urea-ammonium rli trate... |
