1. A Systems Approach to High Yields, Efficiency and Profits in Corn, Wheat and Doublecropped Soybean RotationUsing a systems approach friendly to the environment, a three-crop/two-year no-till system has shown significiant yield increases in a three-year research project conducted at the Poplar Hill Research and Education Facility in Quantico, Maryland. In each case, corn, wheat, and doublecropped soybean yields exceeded average yields produced on Maryland's Delmarva Peninsula. Instrumental in producing these superior yields were enhanced fertility, supplemental water, and appropriate variety selection.... |
2. Evaluation of Starter Fertilizer Formulations and Placements for Conservation Tillage Production SystemsWith the interest in and importance of the use of starter fertilizers in conservation tillage production systems, research was continued to evaluate higher rates of N in starter fertilizers and different starter fertilizer placements. The use of starter fertilizer containing N, P and K significantly increased corn yields compared to a N only program, even though soil P and K levels were high. Increasing N rates in direct seed placed starter did not increase yields and significantly reduced plant... |
