1. Predicting Plant Available Potassium using a Modified Sodium Tetraphenylboron Method

Current potassium (K) fertilizer. recommendations in the midwest are based primarily on the ammonium acetate exchangeable K (NH,OAc) soil test. In soils where nonexchangeable K comprises a major portion of plant available K, the ammonium acetate soil test is unreliable. Soil K extraction by sodium tetraphenylboron (Na-TPB) accesses both exchangeable and nonexchangeable K and mimics the action of K uptake by plant roots. A Na-TPB method utilizing a 5-minute extraction period is described, and the...

2. Phosphorus and Potassium Effects on Yield Components, Nutrient Accumulation and Persistence of Alfalfa (Medicago Sativa L.)

Our objective was to determine why phosphorus (P) and potassiun~ (K) are essential for high yield by analyzing alfalfa yield components. Plots of P treatments (0, 25. 50, and 75 kg/ha) and K treatnients (0. 100, 200, 300, and 400 kgha) arranged in a factorial design were replicated four times. Forage was harvested four times per growi~lg season (1998-2000), and yield. mass per shoot, shoots per area. and herbage nutrient concentrations determined. In May and December, plants were dug to determine...

3. Impacts of Management, Moisture, and Phosphorus Form on Phosphorus Loss Potential

Phosphorus (P) is considered one of the major nutrients contributing to degradation of water quality in the United States. Our objectives were to examine P loss potential associated with: 1) high moisture conditions. 2) application (surface and incorporated) of manure from animals fed different diets and 3) sorption dynamics of inorganic and organic P compounds. The study of high moisture conditions evaluated the effects of near surface moisture conditions (wet and saturated), time (up to 28 days...

4. Using Soil Properties to Predict Soluable Phosphorus Losses from Indiana Soils

Escessive phosphorus (P) levels in surface water can degrade water quality by causing algal blooms and accelerating the eutrophication process. Agriculture has bceri implicated as a major nonpoint source of P, so many states have considered restricting P applications from inorganic fertilizers, manures, and other Pcontaining materials once soil test P levels esceed "threshold values". Relationships between soil properties and soluble P loss potential have not been welldocumcnted. This laboratory...
