1. Fertilizer management and cover crop effects on phosphorus use efficiency, environmental efficiency and crop yieldPhosphorus loss from agricultural production is a significant contributor to the degradation and contamination of surface and ground waters. To help protect these waters, it is vital to maximize agronomic and environmental efficiency of phosphorus in the cropping system. The objective of this study was to quantify the effects of cover crops and different phosphorus fertilizer management practices on nutrient use efficiency, environmental efficiency and yield in a no-tillage corn-soybean rotation....

2. Two-sided Banding of Nitrogen and Sulfur Fertilizers Improves Maize Yield and Nutrient Use Efficiency in Midwestern Cropping SystemsEfficient fertilizer management is essential for maximizing crop yield while minimizing environmental impacts. Optimizing fertilizer placement is a key strategy for improving nutrient recovery and synchronizing nutrient availability with crop demand. Traditionally, fertilizer banding in Midwestern maize (Zea mays L.) systems is done on one side of the plant. This study evaluates the impact of two-sided banding of nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) fertilizers on maize yield and nutrient use... A. Yakubu, A. Ludolph, A. Diop, A. Yakubu, R. Roth |
