1. Field Scale Variability of Corn Yield response Functions to Fertilizer Nitrogen ApplicationVariable rate nitrogen (N) application assumes that corn response to N fertilizer varies within a field. However, this hypothesis has not been formally tested yet. Field variation of corn response to N fertilizer and economically optimum N fertilizer rates (EON) were assessed in on- farm experiments throughout central Illinois. Fields (16 to 32 ha.) were subdivided into 13 to 20 areas. Five nitrogen rates were randomized within these areas in 28 kg N increments (2 rates) and decrements (2 rates)... |
2. Assessment of the Combined Effects of Soil pH and Carbonates on Soybean Yield and Development of Iron Deficiency ChlorosisSoybean is extensively grown in areas of the Midwest where fields often have areas of acid to calcareous soils intermingled in complex spatial patterns. Soil pH is highly buffered by carbonates, and measured pH usually ranges from 7.5 to 8.3 depending on the concentration of C02 and other factors. Soybean grown on high-pH calcareous soils often shows iron (Fe) deficiency chlorosis (IDC). Symptoms of IDC include yellowing of interveinal areas of young leaves and, as the deficiency becomes severe,... |
