1. 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.... |
2. Cropping System Effects on Phosphorus Response of CornToday's corn producer performs less tillage than in the past and predictions indicate that even less will be done in the future. Changes in management practices involving different tillage and residue incorporation practices alter the dynamics of organic matter turnover in soil and may influence the supply of plant nutrients. To maximize efficiency, it is critical that information be available to guide fertilizer management adjustments for specific tillage and rotation systems. A tremendous amount... |
3. Manure Treatment and Handling OptionsManure treatment and handling will need to be an integral part of the nutrient management systems on livestock farms. No one manure system will meet the varied needs of farms with their specific nutrient management situations. The method of manure handling that will best suit each farm will vary depending on labor, land and capital resources and the manure itself. Several criteria that each farm manager will need to evaluate the treatment system that will best meet their needs are presented. A variety... |
