1. Do Hybrids Differ in Response to Differential Levels of Nitrogen Fertilizer?In the absence of other limiting factors, maize yield increases with nitrogen fertilizer application to very high levels. In fact, researchers attempting to maximize maize production have reported a yield -rise at levels of N greater than 300 lbs/acre. Because there are many limiting factors in addition to nitrogen, nitrogen fertilizer must be mged to minimize costs and maximize response. In addition to mging the crup's proctuctivity, recent concerns about high levels of nitrates and other farm... |
2. Effects of Sampling Time, Soil Moisture Content, and Extractant on Soil Test Potassium LevelsAn accurate prediction of plant-available pota ssium (K) requires a thorough understanding of the mechanisms that might impact soil test K. A three year field study was developed to determine relationships between soil test potassium (STK) levels and time of soil sampling, soil moisture content, and extractant. Five field sites were established in 2006 throughout Wisconsin at Arlington, Hancock, Marshfield, and Lancaster Agricultural Resear ch Stations, and a private farm in Fond du Lac county each... |
