1. Improved N Use Efficiency for Wheat in Southwest IndianaAbout one-third of the wheat acreage in Indiana is grown in southwest Indiana. During most years this area of Indiana receives exoessive precipitation during the late winter and spring gruwth period for wheat. This presents problems with losses of available soil nitrogen (N) through leaching and/or denitrification and law uptake of N by the crop even on fields which have been well-fertilized. These experiments were condtucted in 1986 and 1987 to evaluate fall, mid-winter and late-winter topdressing... |
2. 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... |
