1. Soybean Yield Response to P Fertilizer Placement as Affected by Soil Parameters: A ReviewIn the last decades, several studies were conducted to evaluate more efficient P fertilizer management with emphasis on placement. Many of these studies report contrasting results, suggesting that a general recommendation may not be appropriate and specific factors of soils, crops, and weather should be considered. A literature search was completed using Google Scholar, and published papers that met our selection criteria included 62 experiments, with 95 site-years. Approximately 9.8% of the studies... F.

2. Compaction - K Fertility Interactions in Corn ProductionSoil compaction is recognized as a significant factor affecting yield in crop production today. The pressure to produce crops profitably has often led gruwers to farm greater acreages, with larger equipment under soil conditions which favor compaction. Effects of compaction are not limited to the surface lay- of a soil but often may be apparent cut much of the root zone. With the interest in soil compaction and its effects on crop growth, a research project was initiated to accomplish the fol lowing... |
3. Utilizing Fertilizer Technologies to Reduce Nitrate Leaching in the Central Sands Region of WisconsinLeaching of nitrate into the groundwater has been a continuing and extensively researched problem in the sandy soils of Wisconsin. However, no proven solution to this problem has been identified as yet. Research results from our studies in 2009 showed that several products had potential in reducing nitrate-nitrogen (NO 3-N) leaching. Although not always statistically significant, one slow-release fertilizer, Environmentally Smart Nitrogen (ESN), produced greater yields than conventional fertilizer.... |
4. Root Growth and Phosphorus Uptake Affected by Fertilizer Management in Soybean and WheatPlant root growth patterns can be affected by nutrient and water availability. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of phosphorus (P) fertilizer management on soybean (Glycine max. L) and winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) root system growth and macro and micronutrients uptake. Two greenhouse studies were carried out at Kansas State University, Manhattan, Kansas under controlled environment. The experimental design... F. Hansel, D. Diaz |
5. Soil Phosphorus Fractions and Legacy after Long-term Fertilizer Placement in a Corn-Soybean RotationPhosphorus (P) fertilizer placement can affect plant P uptake during the growing season, however, the long-term interaction of placement and plant root P uptake can also affect soil P pools. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of long-term P fertilizer placement on soil P pools (labile, moderately labile and non-labile) and legacy soil P accumulation under a corn (Zea mays) -soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) rotation. A field study was conducted for ten years from 2006-... M. Coelho, D. Ruiz Diaz, G. Hettiarachchi, F. Hansel |
