1. Impacts of Management, Moisture, and Phosphorus Form on Phosphorus Loss PotentialPhosphorus (P) is considered one of the major nutrients contributing to degradation of water quality in the United States. Our objectives were to examine P loss potential associated with: 1) high moisture conditions. 2) application (surface and incorporated) of manure from animals fed different diets and 3) sorption dynamics of inorganic and organic P compounds. The study of high moisture conditions evaluated the effects of near surface moisture conditions (wet and saturated), time (up to 28 days... |
2. Applied Nutrient Management Research at Pioneer FarmAs part of the Wisconsin Agricultural Stewardship Initiative (WASI). Pioneer Fann serties as an applied systems research and education fCm with a mission to collect and disseminate high- quality environmental and economic baseline data to students, producers, and regulatory personnel. This paper outlines the current farm operations, methods and types of data collection, current results from ongoing monitoring projccts and 1.esearc11, and details how the data is being used to support science-based... |
3. Scale of Measurement Effects on Phosphorus Runoff Losses from CroplandAs phosphorus (P)-based nutrient management planning becomes necessary for some farms in Wisconsin, it will be critical to have reliable, research-based planning tools. The Wisconsin P- hdex provides one method for preparing P-based nutrient management plans. The P-Index was developed largely from small plot-scale data showing the relationships between various site and management variables and runoff P losses. Thls study was conducted to compare runoff composition measurements at the subwatershed... |
4. Micronutrients Fertilization for Corn and Soybean: A Research UpdateEssential plant nutrients such as boron (B), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), zinc (Zn), and others are absorbed by crops in very small amounts and are referred to as micronutrients. A deficiency can have a large impact on crop yield, however, because they perform important physiological functions. The soil parent material and soil formation processes over time along with effects of soil moisture, aeration, and temperature can significantly influence the amount of plant-available... |
5. 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...
