1. Ground Water Quality Research and Demonstration Projects in NebraskaTwo projects were initiated in Nebraska in 1990 to address concern with increasing levels of nitrate in ground water as part of USDA's Water Quality Initiative. The Nebraska Management Systems Evaluation Area (MSEA) Water Quality Project is a joint effort of USDA Agricultural Research Service (ARS) and University of Nebraska-Lincoln scientists. One phase of the project is investigating the direct impact of four management systems on ground water quality. Another phase of the project is evaluating... |
2. Starter N and P Effects on Early Maturing Corn Planted EarlyShort-season corn planted early is a water-use management option being investigated in the central plains states. This study was conducted in an attempt to determine optimum starter N and P fertilizer rates and to compare subsurface banded versus surface applications of P for short-season corn planted early. Each location had a 3x3 factorial arrangement of N and P (0, 20 and 40 lbs N or P205/acre) placed 2 inches below and beside the seed as well as one or both application methods of surface broadcast... |
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...

4. Corn Grain Yield Response to Nitrogen Rate Timing, Source, and Nitrification Inhibitor in MissouriNitrogen response depends on several factors including weather conditions, soil N supply capacity, previous crop in rotation, plant population, and fertilizer management practices. Fertilizer management practices include fertilizer rate, source, application timing, placement, and use of nitrogen stabilizer. In Missouri, the nitrogen fertilizer rate recommendations for corn are based on the yield goal equation. This equation includes the target plant population, pounds of nitrogen removed per thousand...
