1. Corn Response to Nitrogen Fixation Technology in Upstate Missouri

Nitrogen is one of the most expensive corn input costs and is critical for grain production. Nitrogen (N) fixing bacteria convert atmospheric N into organic forms that can be utilized by the plant are common with legumes. The symbiosis between Rhizobia and legumes is a critical plant–microbe mutualism that is essential for high yielding soybean. Recently, an emphasis on developing technology to supply corn with additional N through biological processes has been a focus of several agribusinesses... D.J. Steinkamp, K.A. Nelson, G. Singh, G.
