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. Site-Specific Management of Iron Deficiency in CornThe addition of FeS04mH20 in the seed row increases corn (Zea mays L.) yield in areas with Fe deficiency-induced chlorosis. Our objectives were to determine the correct application rate of FeS04.H20 for irrigated corn, identi9 the spatial distribution of Fe deficiency, and alleviate deficiency symptoms with targeted FeS04.H20 applications. Eleven site-years were selected for small-plot studies in western Kansas. At these fields, soil CaC03 content in chlorotic or problematic deficient areas of the... |
