1. On-The-Go Sensors for variable rate Nutrient Management- Determining Soil K Status with a Flat-Surface Ion-Selective ElectrodeTraditional soil sampling approaches are frequently not sufficiently spatially dense to characterize within field variability in soil fertiiity. Recent technology advances have demonstrated the feasibility of using automated soil sampling systems and tractor mounted sensors to create nutrient availability maps from more continuous measurements. Our objective was to determine if a flat-surface ion selective K electrode could measure soil K status at field moisture content. Twenty-four agricultural... |
2. Effect of Timing of Broadcast Potassium (K) on Soybean Yield and Seed K ContentIn Indiana, the common practice is for K fertilizer to be applied in advance of the corn crop for both crops in the rotation, relegating soybean to feed on the application residual. Producers are concerned that current University guidelines and common practices for K management in corn- soybean rotations do not fully recognize the particular K needs of the soybean crop as differentiated from the corn crop. A four-location, six-year field study was conducted to investigate the effects of rate and... |
