1. Influence of Tillage Systems on Corn Yields and Soil Test ValuesA long term tillage study was initiated at the Greenley Memorial Research Center (Novelty, MO) in 1976 to look at the effects of 4 tillage systemsoncornproduction. Thestudywasinitiatedandconductedby researchers in the Agricultural Engineering Department. Agronomy has become involved in the study beginning in 1985 to assess the effects of tillage systems on soil chemical and physical properties. The upland soils at this site are poorly drained and are generally refered to as "claypan" soils. The climate... |
2. No-till Nitrogen Management Research in MissouriNo-till nitrogen management research on corn in Missouri has focused on the field response of N sources and placement. Results suggest consistent significant response to the use of a non-volatile N source when broadcast on the soil surface compared to N sources that contain urea and potentially can lose ammonia through volatilization. Knifed application of N in no-till has . consistently provided higher yields and N uptake compared to either surface band or broadcast application of potentially volatile... |
3. Survey of Corn Response to Fertilizer Sulfur in MissouriAbstract Fertilizer sulfur (S) rate studies were conducted during 1991 and 1992 at 53 sites located throughout Missouri on soils that were primarily silt loam or heavier. Sites were selected on the basis of a high yield potential since a common belief among farmers and fertilizer dealers is that the greater crop S requirement of high yields exceeds the S supply from the soil and incidental sources. Either ammonium sulfate or ammonium thosulfate were applied at planting or wihn four weeks following... |
