1. Project Sense: Sensors for the Efficient Use of Nitrogen and Stewardship of the Environment. An On-Farm Research Effort to Increase Adoption of Sensor Based N ManagementLow nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) has been attributed to several factors including asynchrony between nitrogen (N) fertilizer application, crop demand, and spatial variability (Shanahan et al., 2008). Sidedress applied N synchronizes crop uptake demand for N, but does not address the spatial and temporal variability that exists in a field year to year. Active crop canopy sensors provide an ability to monitor and respond to spatial and temporal N variability for a given field. A three-year project,... B. Krienke, R. Ferguson, J. Luck, L.

2. Long Term Outlook On Nitrogen and Potassium SupplyThe North American fertilizer industry is operating in world market today. Worldwide fertilizer demand, competition for transportation, and natural gas prices are all putting pressure on North American fertilizer prices. The themc of this mornings' session is on strategies the supply industry and fanners may adopt to manage these pressures. This talk is about the near future outlook nitrogen and potassium fertilizer. Fertilizer sales figures indicate that nitrogen, phosphorus. and potassium fertilizer... |
3. Fertilizer Industry Update- Price, Availability, HistoryThis talk will review world and local factors that have been affecting fertilizer demand, pricing, and supply. The speaker will review fertilizer trends and usage in the world markets as well as discuss trends in the U.S. fertilizer industry. Due to the proprietary nature of most of the information, a paper is not included in the proceedings. Select slides may be available upon request. however. ... |

5. Relationship of in-season soil nitrogen concentration with corn yield and potential nitrogen lossesModeled or measured soil mineral N (SMN) levels during the corn growing season have been used to set sidedress N rates, but there has been little research linking SMN levels at different growth stages to yield to help guide this process. The degree to which SMN level influences the risk of N losses is also not known. Data from 32 site-years of field experiments in Illinois (2015–2018) that included 12 combinations of N fertilizer rate, timing, and source, were used to evaluate... G. Preza-fontes, E. Nafziger, L.
