1. Hybrid and Potash Effects on Root Growth in Ridge-till CornPotassium deficiency symptoms often appear in ridge-till and no-till corn even when soil test values for potassium are high. Certain hybrids are morc sensitive to the problem than others. Two techniques were used to assess root activity arid density in a three year experiment at the West Central Experiment Station, Morris, MN. We compared two tillage systems (fall chisel and ridge till). two hybrids (Pioneer 3732 and 3737) and three fertilizer treatments (control and 40 IbIA banded or broadcast K,O).... |
2. Nitrogen and Phosphorus Recalibration for Sunflower in the Northern Great PlainsSunflower producers in the northern Great Plains states of North Dakota, South Dakota, and Minnesota are presently directed to N and P recommendations that originate from research performed in the late 1960s and early 1970s. These three states alone produce more than 80% of the sunflowers in the United States on a yearly basis (USDA-NASS, 2015). The current general formulas determining N and P fertilizer rate in these top-producing states are equivalent. The N recommendation is represented here by... |
3. A Minnesota-Wide Assessment of Critical Pre-Plant and in-Season Soil Nitrate for Adjusting Nitrogen Rate GuidelinesThe pre-plant (PPNT) and pre-sidedress (PSNT) soil nitrate tests are often used as indicators of soil nitrogen (N) availability in Minnesota. The assessment of available soil nitrogen (N) provides corn (Zea mays L.) growers with key information on N credits to adjust their N fertilizer rates. However, current N management recommendations in Minnesota were based on research conducted 40-yr ago and did not specify differences between environments and management. Through a comprehensive...
