1. Nitrous Oxide Emissions From Nitrogen Fertilizers In IllinoisNitrous oxide (N 2O) has a large global warming potential (GWP). Agricultural applications of nitrogen (N) contribute to N 2O emissions but it might be possible to mitigate such emissions through different N sources. We investigated the potential for anhydrous ammonia (AA), urea, and polymer coated urea (ESN) to mitigate N 2O emissions while enhancing corn (Zea mays L.) production. This three-year study was conducted in Champaign County, Illinois on highly productive mollisols during 2009 to 2011.... |
2. Minimizing Nitrate Loss from Manure-amended Wisconsin Sandy SoilsThe impact of dairy manure application on nitrate leaching was evaluated at two sites with no manure history. Manure treatment (separated-solid manure, separated-liquid manure, separated- liquid manure plus a nitrification inhibitor, and two treatments with no manure) was the main plot. Each manured plot was split into six subplots with three receiving a single sidedress fertilizer application of 0, 56, or 112 kg N ha -1 while the others had two sidedress applications totaling 112 kg N ha-1 with... |
3. Maize Yield Increased by Optimal Timing and Placement of Polymer-coated Nitrogen FertilizerNitrogen (N) fertilizer application timing and placement can manage N availability to improve maize (Zea mays L.) productivity, but polymer-coated N fertilizer offers a different approach to season-long N availability and creates new N management opportunities. The objective of this study was to compare the effectiveness of conventional and polymer-coated N sources across fertilizer timing and placement combinations to optimize maize productivity. Field trials were conducted at three... S. Schwartz, F. Below |
