1. Evaluating Commercial Nitrification Inhibitors Under Variable Soil ConditionsNitrification inhibitors (NIs) are commonly used agrochemicals designed to slow the conversion ammonium to nitrate, which has the potential to reduce environmental losses of nitrogen and improve nitrogen fertilizer recovery efficiency. However, their efficacy can be highly variable and is dependent upon soil and environmental characteristics which can vary by geographic location and agricultural production system. This experiment involved a laboratory incubation designed to evaluate the performance... R. Roth, A. Ludolph |
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 |
