1. Nitrate Concentrations in Drainage Water from a Continuous Corn Production System- Impacts of Tile Spacing and Precipitation EventsCharacterization of agricultural drains as point sources for nitrates in surface waters has generated keen interest in regional grab-sample monitoring programs. Grab sample tile drain monitoring programs are being explored by numerous public and private organizations interested in encouraging BMPYs for nitrogen and/or implementation of TMDL policy. Our objective was to determine if nitrate concentrations in water collected from individual tile lines could be interpreted independent of information... |
2. Corn Response to Sulfur Fertilization in Central Iowa SoilsReductions in atmospheric sulfur (S) deposition and increased S removal through continuous cropping have led to S fertilizer responses in many crops. Responses to S fertilization by corn (Zea mays L.), however, have been inconsistent across the upper Midwest. Our objectives with this field study were to: (i) compare S sources for corn vegetative growth and grain yield; (ii) evaluate soil extractable S and S tissue concentrations at different growth stages as S diagnostic tools;...
