1. The Growth of MEY in Spring Wheat CountryAny ag orientated news source looked at in recent weeks in North Dakota or western Minnesota has had some kind of a MEY related story. The MEY usually has been identified as 19naximum economic yield," but recently some use of I1most efficient yield" has been seen. Yes, spring wheat country has a new buzz acronym - MEY. How did such a buzz term for tbis amount of press/news coverage develop in the spring wheat region? The kickoff for MEY club deve1-t ocaured on November 25, 1986. Before that was possible,... |
2. A Crop-Based Approach for In-Season N Management of CornOver-application of nitrogen (N) fertilizer on corn has resulted in elevated levels of N in ground and surface waters. A major factor contributing to decreased N use efficiency and environmental contamination for traditional corn N management schemes is routine pre-season application of large doses of N before the crop can effectively utilize this N. Our long-term research goal is to reduce these over-applications by using remote sensing to direct fertilizer only to areas needing N at times when... |
3. Enhanced Efficiency Phosphorus Application for a Corn-Soybean RotationPhosphorus (P) is an essential plant nutrient that is taken up by plants as inorganic ions (H 2PO4- and HPO 4 -2) found in soil solution. With higher fer tilizer costs, farmers are evaluating application rates and considering enhanced effi ciency phosphorus applications or treatments. AVAIL®(Specialty Fertilizer Products, Leawood, KS), NutriLife Max® (Advanced Microbial Solutions, Pilot Point, TX), and P ₂O ₅ Max (Rosen's Inc., Fairmont, MN) are three products that are intended to enhance the... |
