1. Corn Growth and Yield Responses to Pre-plant and In-season Nitrogen CombinationsIn-season N applications may help synchronize N availability with corn uptake but further investigation is needed to validate different combinations of pre-plant and in-season N strategies. Field experiments were initiated in 2014 to investigate corn response to N management programs involving multiple N-placements, timings, and sources applied at a single N rate at two Michigan locations. Nitrogen management programs were grouped into three strategies utilizing broadcast pre-plant incorporated (PPI)... |
2. Site Specific Nitrogen and Irrigation Management Across Nebraska Agro-ecological ZonesNitrogen leaching below hrrow irrigated ground has caused nitrate contamination in Nebraska's groundwater. Alternate row irrigation and alternate row nitrogen fertilization is proposed as a method to decrease water use and decrease nitrogen leaching. Nitrogen was applied at a uniform and variable rates based on spring grid sampling for nitrate and soil organic matter. The experiment was conducted at three sites in Nebraska that represent a range of growing conditions. At these sites the average growing... |
3. Uptake and Leaching Potential Of Potassium And Sulfur When Split Applied For Corn on Irrigated SoilCoarse textured soils used in irrigated agriculture often face nutrient losses through the soil profile due to low cation exchange capacity (CEC). Split fertilizer application on sandy soils has been recommended for the corn crops in MN to avoid the leaching of fertilizers nutrients. Our study aimed to look at the potential for potassium and sulfur to be taken up or leached out in corn production. Two K and two S fertilizers studies were set up in Minnesota on coarse irrigated soils. Each site had... |
