1. Corn and Soybean Response to Starters After Broadcast Fertilizer ApplicationCorn response to fertilization and placement methods has always been a subject of interest and extensive research; however studies on soybean response to placement have been limited in Kansas. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of starter and broadcast fertilizer application on corn and soybean in a typical corn-soybean rotation in Kansas. Grain and seed yield, early growth, nutrient concentration and uptake were evaluated over eight site-years trials in Kansas for both corn and... |
2. Precision planting impacts on winter cereal rye growth, nutrient uptake, spring soil temperature, and adoption costGrowing winter cereal rye (Secale cereale) (WCR) has been identified as an effective in-field practice to reduce nitrate-N and phosphorus (P) losses to Upper Mississippi River Basin (UMRB), USA. In the Midwestern USA, growers are reluctant to plant WCR especially prior to corn (Zea mays L.) due to N immobilization and establishment issues. Precision planting of WCR or “Skipping the corn row” (STCR) can minimize some issues associated with WCR ahead of corn while reducing... |
3. Effect of Long-Term Tillage and Crop Rotation on Mineral Associated Organic Matter Distribution Along the Soil ProfileSoil carbon (C) stability in soil organic matter (SOM) is critical for mitigating climate change as well as for providing food security. SOM associated with mineral Mineral-associated organic matter (MAOM) has a longer residence time than the light, sand-sized particulate organic matter (POM). Therefore, it is important to study the effect of conservation practices like no tillage and crop rotation on MAOM distribution to better understand carbon stability and persistence. The objective of this... A. Gautam, T. Vyn, S. Armstrong |
