1. The Effects of Rate and Timing of Nitrogen Applications on the Yield and Nitrogen Recovery of Irrigated CornHigh crop yields require that adequate amounts o f N be present and available to the root at the times it i s needed to support growth. However, for a production system to be efficient in the use of the nitrogen and to minimize any potential adverse environmental effects, care must be used to minimize loss during the growing season and minimize amounts of residual N remaining in the soil at the end of the cropping season. This requires that proper N rates be applied and that the N be applied in such... |
2. How Fertilizer Dealers Use Research InformationThere i s not a great deal o f resource information t o draw from i n reference t o the t i t l e so most o f my comments are based on observations made and personal opinions formed during some 26 years of experience in the fertilizer industry, covering a majority of the principal agricultural states. Fertilizer dealers as a whole tend t o translate research information into dollars. They use it as a business tool. It provides support t o the sale of existing products and services and identifies... |
3. Nitrogen Management in Irrigated Corn Using Remotely-Sensed Imagery and Small-Plot ExperimentsNitrogen management for irrigated corn (Zea mays L.) grown along the Arkansas River Valley in Kansas is a concern due to the hig&ly leachable soils and high water tables (ranging fiom 10-50 A). Irrigated corn usually requires a high input of N fertilizer to achieve maximum yields, and most farmers in this area have been applying a uniform rate of nitrogen across their fields every growing season based on the following KSU N recommendation. N Rec = [YG * 1.35 lbs bu-'1 STA - PCA - PYM - PNST N Rec-nitrogen... |
4. Study on Phosphorus and Nitrogen Concentration of Corn Adapted in South DakotaThough nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are vital in several physiological and developmental processes in plants and animals, they pose several environmental, nutritional and health problems, if present in excess amounts. Reduction in the excess input of these nutrients into the soil, thereby reducing environmental problem and consequently nutritional and health problem, can be achieved by balancing their concentration in animal feed. Therefore, this research aims to quantify the nitrogen and phosphorus... |
5. Skip-Row Configuration and Plant Density Effects on Sorghum Grain Yield and Yield Component in Southern NebraskaEqual spacing of sorghum rows typically results in the highest grain yield when soil water is adequate throughout the season, but skip-row plan ting may be a means to reduce water deficits during reproductive growth stages. We evaluated the effect of skip-row planting configuration and plant population density on grain yield, yield components and water use efficiency at five locations in a transect across southern Nebras ka where annual mean precipitation ranges from 300 to 900 mm yr -1. Three row... |
6. Changes in P Uptake and Partitioning in Soybean Cultivars Released in the Last 90 YearsHistorical changes in nutrient uptake and partitioning of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] were not studied. Field studies were conducted in 2011 and 2012 to investigate phosphorus (P) uptake changes and partitioning through the growing season in 25 maturity group (MG) II, and 26 MG III cultivars. Plant samples were taken and partitioned at V4 (four trifoliates), R2 (full bloom), R4 (full pod), R6 (full seed), and R8 (physiological maturity) growth stages. In-season samples were partitioned into... |
