1. Pass--An Improved System for Combining Dris and Sufficiency Range Approaches to Plant AnalysisThe University of Wisconsin Soil & Plant Analysis Lab (UW-Lab) includes both the Sufficiency Range (SR) and the Diagnosis and Recommendations Lntegrated System (DRIS) interpretations in plant analysis reports. The UW-Lab added the DRIS to its routine plant analysis program in 1992. Soon after its introduction, the DRIS appeared to be diagnosing Ca as yield-limiting in many cases where the SR interpreted Ca as sufficient. The DRIS diagnosis of Ca as deficient also contradicted previous research which... |
2. Use of Fly Ash as as Alternative Liming Source for Irrigated Corn ProductionFly ash from the Gerald Gentleman Power Station in west central Nebraska can potentially serve as an alternative liming source without reducing corn grain yields. A study was conducted to assess the use of fly ash as an alternative liming source on three acid sandy soils of west central Nebraska where conventional limmg sources can be uneconomical due to transportation costs. Corn grain yield, and soil pH change over time were assessed. Lime sources failed to raise the soil pH in the upper 8 inches... |
