1. Chloride Fertilization on Wheat, Corn, and Grain SorghumResearch in the Pacific Northwest and the Northern Great Plains has documented positive cereal grain responses to chloride (CI) fertilization. Field research was conducted in Kansas evaluating CI fertilization on winter wheat, corn, and grain sorghum. Chloride fertilization consistently and significantly increased plant CI concentrations in all crops. Chloride fertilization increased grain yields or one or more winter wheat cultivars at 3 of 4 sites. The most dramatic yield increases were at the... |
2. Manure Total Nitrogen Variability Due to Analytical Method and Total Solids ContentKnowing the nutrient analysis of a fertilizer source is essential to ensure adequate nutrients for crop growth, while not causing potential environmental impacts by overapplying nutrients. Using manure as a nutrient source can complicate matters as the nutrient content can be variable and the manure can come in a range of liquid to solid consistencies. There are multiple laboratory methods to determine different nutrient parameters and for manure total nitrogen levels the most common methods... N.L. Bohl bormann, M.L. Wilson, E.L. Cortus, J.

3. Updating Phosphorus Recommendations for IllinoisIllinois soil phosphorus (P) recommendations are outdated and make use of concepts such as soil P supply power are outdated. This 2022 Illinois State Report provides a summary and outlook on key considerations for P recommendations that may be instructive to other North Central states. ... A. Margenot |
4. County-Level Phosphorus Balances for 2017 in IllinoisCropland phosphorus (P) balances (manure and fertilizer P minus crop P removal) are great sustainability tools to assess long-term managements at farm, county, and state levels. Our objectives were to estimate county, regional, and state-level cropland P balances for Illinois in 2017. Based on the census data in 2017, Illinois county P balance ranged from -14.38 to 36 lb/acre/yr. Overall, Illinois had a negative P balance at about -3 lb/acre/yr. About 71% of counties, had a negative P balance,... X. Liu, S. Xu, A. Margenot, A. Sadeghpour, O. Zandvakili, M. Guzel |
5. Phosphorus Management in the North Central Region: A Brief History, Current Unknowns and Next StepsThe history of phosphorus (P) reflects the history of agriculture in the North Central region. The yield-limiting importance of P, secondary to nitrogen, was recognized as at the turn of the 19th century. An overview of key developments and unfinished business following the picking of these low hanging fruit in the 20th century that face researchers, agronomists, and producers will be discussed. These include assessing P mobility, P sources from fertilizer versus soil, the concept of... A. Margenot |
