1. Effect of Nitrogen Fertilizer Placement and Sources on No-till CornNo-tillage production of corn can lead to a number of savings for growers including costs of time, machinery, labor, and energy. However, savings of soil and water are perhaps the most important attributes of no-tillage production on the sloping, erosion-prone soils found in southern Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, and Kentucky. Producer acceptance of no-tillage has not been overwhelming. Prob- lems in achieving acceptable stands, difficulties in adequately con- trolling pests of all types, especially... |
2. No-till Corn Response to N Fertilizer Sources and Placement Methods- A Summary of Southern Illinois ResultsExperiments were conducted in southern Illinois from 1984-1986 to evaluate the placement efficiency of several N fertilizers used in no-till corn production. Such information has become of meaningful importance as producers strive to obtain the greatest possible returns from their N fertilizer investment and to obtain yields and a level of profitability equal to that of more conventionally produced corn. Also, in the near future, no-tillage will become an important tool for many farmers in southern... |
3. Impact of sulfur and its interaction with N rates on wheat and barley in North Dakota and Western MinnesotaEffects of S, N, and their interactions were assessed on grain yields and protein of spring wheat and barley, across eight site years in Western Minnesota (MN), and ten site years (hereafter, sites) in North Dakota (ND) from 2015 to 2019. The studies were to determine if S improves yields and protein in wheat, and if the effects were dependent on N rates. Treatments included all combinations of five N rates of N (0, 60, 120, 180, and 240 lbs/ac) and three rates of S (0, 10, 20 lbs/ac) in MN. In... J.M. Teboh, S. Yuja, B.G. Schatz, G. Pradhan |
4. Soil Health Indicators help with Fertilizer Application Decisions in South Dakota CornFertilizer inputs are an essential part of corn (Zea mays) cropping systems in the United States. In South Dakota, phosphorus and potassium yearly inputs are based on soil test nutrient levels and a yield goal while sulfur is based on soil texture and tillage practices. These 3 plant nutrients have a point called the “critical value” where addition of more of the nutrient as an inorganic fertilizer should no longer result in a yield increase. These fertilizer critical... B. Groebner, J. Clark |
