1. Nitrogen Management Systems for Ridge-tilled Corn ProductionThe use of conservation tillage methods, including ridge- tillage, increases crop residue cover which can lead to loss of urea-based fertilizers applied broadcast. ~ield tests were conducted during 1987-1991 at the ~rrigation ~xperiment Field, located near Scandia, Kansas, on a Crete silt loam soil (fine, montmorillionitic, mesic, Panchic, Arguistoll). Treatments included anhydrous ammonia (AA) applied preplant knife-injected; 28% urea-ammonium nitrate solution (UAN) applied preplant knife- injected,... |
2. Fertilizer Management for Strip-till and No-till Corn ProductionStrip-tillage for corn production can be advantageous over no-till. particularly in areas with heavy soils and high rainfall during spring months. Under these conditions in no-till systems. planting delays andlor slow. uneven emergence are common. Strip-tillage creates a narrow tilled area for the seedbed while maintaining the inter-row residue cover, allowing for erosion protection associated with no-till. yet providing an area in the rowr where the soil will dry out and warm up earlier in the season.... |
