1. Iowa Soil-Test Field Calibration Research Update- Potassium and the Mehlich-3 ICP Phosphorus TestIowa soil-test interpretations and fertilizer recommendations for phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) were last updated in 1999. The only change from previous recommendations (Voss et al., 1996; Voss and Mallarino, 1996) was to add interpretations for the Mehlich-3 (M3) P and K tests to existing interpretations for the Bray-1 P, Olsen P, and ammonium-acetate K tests (Voss et al., 1999). The interpretations for the ammonium-acetate and M3 K tests are similar because comparisons of amounts of K extracted... |
2. Soil-Test Potassium Field Calibrations for Soybean Iowa Interpretations and Research UpdateThere is a long history of potassium (K) fertilization research for soybean and other crops in the North-Central Region. Sustained Iowa field research efforts focused on developing soil-test K (ST10 interpretation and on studying impacts of K fertilization strategies on grain yield and STK. Because of changes in the soil-test K method used in Iowa, this information collected over time should be evaluated separately. The field crop response and STK calibration research conducted Erom the late 1960s... |
3. Recalibration of Potassium Requirements for Corn in North DakotaThe previous North Dakota potassium recommendations for corn were borrowed from central Corn Belt states, where the dry soil-based 1 M ammonium acetate extraction for soil test K was utilized with a critical K value of 150 ppm. This value was adequate before 2000 because corn production was limited to only a few counties in southeastern North Dakota, and soil test K values were commonly above 300 ppm. However, the intensification of corn production in these counties and an increasing acreage around... D. Franzen, J. Breker, M. Rakkar, A. Chatterjee |
