1. Interaction of Potassium Fertilization and Row Width for SoybeansIn the past several years the row width of soybeans has decreased substantially. As row width decreases the amount of soil between rows for soybean roots to explore and from which to extract nutrients has decreased. Also many acres in the Midwest have little or no fertilizer added in the soybean year but rely on residual nutrients left from the previous crop. In this study the effect of row width and method of potassium fertilization for soybeans was investigated. ... |
2. Potassium RecommendationsMost soils have relatively large contents of total K but relatively small amounts of plant- available K+. Potassium is found as a component of several minerals that release it to soluble and exchangeable forms by weathering at greatly differing rates. These forms are shown in the adjacent figure. Some of these minerals also have the capacity to reabsorb (fix) added K+ back into their structures in nonexchangeable form. Even the exchangeable K+ is bonded with different strengths depending on the type... |
3. N x K Interactions- CornA study was conducted at OARDC-Western Branch near Springfield, OH for 4 years starting in 1992 to investigate the effects of N and K on corn production N uptake. The soil series was a Crosby Silt Loam with approximately 2.5% organic matter. All nutrients were in the above average levels on the soil test except for exchangeable K levels. See table 2 for soil test K levels. The corn hybrid Countryrnark 735 was seeded approximately the last week of April at 35,000 seeddacre. A split plot design with... |
4. Summary of How Fertilizer Dealers Integrated Manure into Their Nutrient Management ProgramsTwo fertilizer dealers established manure brokerages in Ohio in the spring of 1992. One was in Holrnes County in Northeast Ohio with Progressive Crop Service, an independent fertilker dealer. This county is in an area which has a high concentration of poultry located in the eastern part of the county. Most of the row crop agriculture is in the western side of the county. The terrain is rolling and this is an Amish community which tends to have small fkms. The second site is in Darke County in western... |
5. Influence of Nitrapyrin on Nitrate Concentrations in SoilsIn central Ohio most of the water used for d&g comes from the Scioto River Watershed. This water shed in primarily composed of farmland in which corn and soybeans are the dominant crops. Periodically the nitrogen in the Scioto River exceeds safe drinlung water standards of 10 ppm nitrate nitrogen. Several EPA studies have concluded the high nitrate nitrogen levels are the results of nitrate flushes through the underground tile in agricultural fields. These flushes of high nitrates usually from late... |
