1. Corn Nitrogen Evaluation in South DakotaCurrent Nitrogen (N) recommendations for corn in South Dakota use an N rate calculator approach (yield goal x 1.2 ⤓ soil test Nitrate-N (0-2 ft) ⤓ legume credits ⤓ other credits such as manure application or N in starter fertilizers + 30 lbs N/a for no-till). The N coefficient has been modified in the past from 1.45 in 1975, to 1.3 in 1982 and currently 1.2 determined 1991. The N coefficient is in dire need of re-evaluation because... A. Bly, S. Berg, P.

2. Site-Specific Prediction of Soybean Nitrogen ContributionsSoybean has long been recognized for its nitrogen (N) contributions and yield enhancing effects in crop sequences. Soybean N credits in the Midwest range fiom 20 to 40 Ib of Nlacre (Kurtz et al., 1984). Several Midwestern states recommend a legume credit of 40 Ib of Nlacre following an average crop of soybean. Current Wisconsin recommendations suggest a reduction in nitrogen fertilizer rates for corn following soybean of 1 Ib N hushel of soybean yield up to a maximum credit of 40 Ib Nacre (Kelling... |
3. Evaluation of Nitrate Leaching Potential from Slow and Controlled Release Nitrogen Fertilizer Application to Irrigated CornThe use of slow and controlled release nitrogen (N) fertilizers as a practice to reduce nitrate leaching from irrigated corn was evaluated on coar se-textured soils in the Central Platte River Valley of Nebraska in 2007 & 2008. Slow-releas e methylene urea (MU) and polymer-coated urea (PCU) were compared to a standard fertil izer of urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) solution. Flooding in 2007 severely impacted the study site, and results are not reported here. Saturated soils were common at the site in... |
