1. Assessing the Benefits of Radish as a Cover CropOilseed radish (Raphanus sativus L) is a popular cover crop for no-till farmers in Wisconsin, especially among those that include winter wheat in rotation since radish can accumulate large amounts of nitrogen (N). However, previously presented research in Wisconsin has not shown a clear N credit for a subsequent corn crop. Additionally, there is a lack of information that quantifies other benefits of radish, including compaction reduction and nematode suppression. The objective of this project was... |
2. Optimal Phosphorus Response in Site-specific FarmingSite-specific farming has provided an opportunity to collect large amounts of field data, but traditional agronomic yield response models have not been developed to exploit this mformation. This research presents a yield model that incorporates detailed site-specific field information (e.g., soil pH. soil test P, K, and N, fertilizer rates), providing improved fertilizer decision making. A quadratic yield response function and a modified asymptotic Mitscherlich function are compared for irrigated... |
