1. Intensive Wheat Managent in the Corn BeltIntensive wheat management (ICX) is based on European cropping systems including narrow row spacing, precise seeding rates, multiple nitrogen (N) fertilizer application, fungicide application for disease control, and plant growth regulator (PGR) application for lodging control. Components of this cropping system were compared to current recommended management (CRM) practices with 12 varieties during 1986-87. The purpose for the experiment was to determine the responsiveness of soft winter wheat varieties... |
2. Response to Starter Applied Sulfur in Combination with Nitrogen and Phosphorus Across a LandscapeCorn ( Zea Mays L.) response to starter fe rtilizer combinations containing sulfur were studied using a replicated strip trial methodology. Combinations of ni trogen (20 lbs N), phosphorus (20 lbs P 2O5), and sulfur (25 lbs S) were applied two inches beside and below the seed with the planter and compared with a no-starter control a nd 25 lbs broadcast sulfur. Early plant growth was consistently increased by starter P and so metimes by starter N, while sulfur uptake was increased by S and P application.... |
