1. Influence of Tillage and Placement on the Location of Phosphorus in the Root ZoneIn recent years, the ridge-till planting operation and the use of the chisel plow have developed into the most widely accepted planting systems for conservation tillage in Minnesota. While there is opportunity to incorporate plant nutrients in the chisel plow system, previous studies have shown that this incorporation is shallow when compared to the moldboard plow system. The ridge-till system, on the other hand, offers only limited possibilities for fertilizer incorporation. Typical broadcast applications... |
2. Manure Brokerage in OhioIn Ohio there are several counties where annual manure production exceeds the requirements of all crops grown in the county. Poor distribution of this manure has created instances where soils have become overloaded with phosphorus, contributing to the phosphorus load of surface waters and creating the potential for long term release of phosphorus into states waters. Nitrogen also becomes an environmental concern as excess nutrient loads are placed on soils, nitrogen is found leaching through tile... |
3. The Potential use of Polymer-Coated Urea as a Spring Nitrogen Source for WheatMost of the soils in Northwest Ohio are medium to fine texture with poor internal drainage. Tile drainage has improved these fields, but nitrogen loss still often occurs from denitrification, especially during cold and wet springs. Growers compensate for this potential loss by applying more N at green-up or split spring applications. both of which add costs. -4 slow release N fertilizer may reduce the need for more N or split applications. One of the new time release N products is polymer-coated... |
4. The Potential use of Polymer-coated Urea as an In-Furrow Fertilizer for CornMost of the soils in Northwest Ohio are medium to fine texture with poor internal drainage. Tile drainage has improved these fields, but nitrogen loss still often occurs from denitrification, especially during cold and wet springs. The use of no-till practices has accentuated the problem. Starter fertilizers at planting have often improved the early growth of corn under these cold and wet conditions. IIowever, weather conditions may prevent timely sidedressing after planting, and cause N deficiency... |
5. Evaluation of Adapt-N in the Corn BeltNitrogen is the plant nutrient required in the largest quantity, the most likely to be deficient, and the most impactful on corn yield as well as grower profit. Providing N to a corn crop in the right amount while minimizing loss is difficult because of complex biological and chemical reactions that result in the loss of N from the crop root zone via deep percolation to ground water, lateral flow, runoff and erosion to surface waters, and volatile losses to the atmosphere as ammonia, nitrogen gas,... |
6. Optimizing Nitrogen Rate to Maximize Winter Malting Barley Grain Yield While Meeting ProteinWinter malting barley (Hordeum vulgare) acreage is increasing across Ohio due to demand from the local craft brewing industry; however, grain used for this market must pass specific quality requirements. The objective of this study was to identify optimum spring nitrogen rates for winter malting barley that maximize yield while meeting protein requirements. Small plot trials were conducted at three locations in Ohio: Northwest Agriculture Research Station (NWARS) in Custar, Western Agriculture... G. Mcglinch, L. Lindsey, R. Shrestha, M. Hankinson |
7. Soil Carbon Additions Improve Soil Nutrient Cycling and Yield of CornIncreasing soil organic matter and the associated soil carbon is known to positively influence nutrient cycling, and agronomic practices such as conservation tillage and cover crops can facilitate soil carbon increases in the long term. Alternatively, the direct addition of carbon amendments to the soil may serve as an alternative solution for enhancing nutrient cycling in the short-term, which was the basis for this research. Our objective was to assess the potential of granular carbon amendments... D. Danzl, D. Below, D. Sible |
