1. Field Correlation of Tissue Testing for Phosphorus and Potassium in Corn and SoybeanInterest in tissue testing as a method of guiding fertilization and detecting nutrient deficiencies in corn and soybean in the upper Midwest is increasing. Tissue testing may be a helpful diagnostic tool for assessing in-season crop nutrients deficiencies. No current yield-response based interpretations for tissue test results are available in Iowa, although previous reports based on limited data collected during the 1990s and 2000s suggested that the value of tissue testing for phosphorus (P) and... |
2. Small Grain Response to Potassium and Chloride AdditionsStudies have been conducted over a three-year period to determine the frequency and the cause of small grain response to KC1 additions on high K soils. During the first two years responsiveness of hard red spring wheat, spring barley, and oats were compared at six locations in eastern South Dakota. Broadcast applications of 167 lbs/A of KC1 caused grain yield increases significant at the 0.05 probability level at four sites for wheat and two sites for barley while no oat yield increases were measured.... |
3. Corn grain nitrogen and yield with foliar nitrogen application at early reproductive growth stageLate fungicide applications in corn with the use of high clearance equipment create the opportunity for additional foliar fertilizer applications. The objectives of this study were to (1) evaluate the benefit of fungicide applications on yield and grain N in combination with foliar N applications and (3) assess the value of foliar N the application using N sources with urea- formaldehyde/triazone during the VT-R1 growth stage. This experiment was conducted at 6 locations in 2016 and 2017... A. Stammer, D. Ruiz Diaz |
4. Biochemical Soil Health Indicators Related to Economic Optimum Nitrogen Rate in CornIn corn production, nitrogen (N) fertilization is one of the main inputs to enhance yield. However, in the last few years, reducing N utilization has been a goal due to environmental concerns and production costs. Soil health tests have been studied to understand the relationship with N availability and its use to adjust N recommendation rates. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship of different soil tests with the economic optimum N rate (N) for corn in Wisconsin. Soil samples... D. Orjuela Diaz, C.A. Laboski, F.

5. Employing Statistical Models to Determine the Soil Tests and/or Soil Characteristics That Improved EONR Prediction in CornIn corn production, nitrogen (N) fertilization is crucial for increasing yield. However, in the last few years, there has been a push to use less N due to environmental concerns and production costs. There has been an interest in using soil health tests to predict N mineralization potential and further understand soil N availability to adjust N recommendation rates. Different statistical models like regression or decision tree analysis have been used to determine how the Economic Optimum N Rate... D. Orjuela Diaz, C.A. Laboski, F. Arriaga |
