1. Prediction of Corn and Soybean Grain Yield Response to P in Minnesota Using the Haney H3A and Mehlich-III TestsMinnesota soils are highly variable in P availability due to the wide range of chemical properties. Currently, two soil tests are used to measure soil P in Minnesota, the Bray-P1 for pH<7.4 and the Olsen P for pH>7.4. The purpose of this study was to correlate crop response in corn and soybean rotations to the Bray-P1, Olsen, Mehlich-III, and Haney H3A extractions and to determine critical concentrations for each extraction method. Soil P tests were also correlated with one another to determine... D. Kaiser, L. Leverich, J. Vetsch, J. Strock |
2. Field Correlation of Tissue Testing for Phosphorus and Potassium in Corn and SoybeanInterest in tissue testing as a method of guiding fertilization and detecting nutrient deficiencies in corn and soybean in the upper Midwest is increasing. Tissue testing may be a helpful diagnostic tool for assessing in-season crop nutrients deficiencies. No current yield-response based interpretations for tissue test results are available in Iowa, although previous reports based on limited data collected during the 1990s and 2000s suggested that the value of tissue testing for phosphorus (P) and... |
3. Effect of Tillage, Rotation (Maize and Soybean), and Nitrogen Rate in a Long Term Study on Solvita, Water Extract, H3A Extract ValuesA long term rainfed tillage/rotation/N rate study was established in 1985 on a mostly Coleridge silty clay loam (fine-loamy, mixed, superactive, mesic Cumulic Haplustoll). The study is a factorial of plow, disk, and no-till under continuous corn (Zea mays) and corn following soybeans (Glycine Max) with five nitrogen rates (0, 40, 80, 120, 160 kg ha -1). Soil samples were taken from all rotation/tillage combinations and three N rates in the fall of 2013 to 0.20 m (8 in). They were analyzed using the... |
4. Small Grain Response to Potassium and Chloride AdditionsStudies have been conducted over a three-year period to determine the frequency and the cause of small grain response to KC1 additions on high K soils. During the first two years responsiveness of hard red spring wheat, spring barley, and oats were compared at six locations in eastern South Dakota. Broadcast applications of 167 lbs/A of KC1 caused grain yield increases significant at the 0.05 probability level at four sites for wheat and two sites for barley while no oat yield increases were measured.... |
5. Incorporating Cover Crops into No-till Production SystemsAlthough no-till soil management has many benef its, including protecting the soil from erosion, improving soil organic matter, and improving soil moisture storage, depending on environmental conditions there could be a number of potentia l problems. Implementation of no-till soil management in eastern South Da kota can lead to wet and cold soils at the time of planting. Cover crops have the potential to utilize exce ss soil moisture and improve soil conditions at planting. A field experiment was... |
6. Corn grain nitrogen and yield with foliar nitrogen application at early reproductive growth stageLate fungicide applications in corn with the use of high clearance equipment create the opportunity for additional foliar fertilizer applications. The objectives of this study were to (1) evaluate the benefit of fungicide applications on yield and grain N in combination with foliar N applications and (3) assess the value of foliar N the application using N sources with urea- formaldehyde/triazone during the VT-R1 growth stage. This experiment was conducted at 6 locations in 2016 and 2017... A. Stammer, D. Ruiz diaz |
7. Corn Responses to Sulfur Fertilizer in IndianaCorn yield increases in response to sulfur (S) applied as ammonium thiosulfate in liquid N (in sidedress and/or starter fertilizer applications) occurred in ~40% of 40 trials conducted between 2017 and 2021 and ranged from 4 to 24 bushels per acre on responsive sites. Increased grain yield with S fertilization occurred on soils ranging in texture from sandy loam to silty clay loam and soil organic matter concentrations from ~1 to 3%. Yield increases with S fertilization were not predicted by Mehlich‑3... J. Camberato, D. Salguero, R. Nielsen |
