1. Nitrogen Recalibration for Spring Wheat and Durum in North DakotaNorth Dakota will begin using new fertilizer r ecommendations beginning Dec. 1, 2009. Previous recommendations required a yield guess by growers with no rega rd to economics of nitrogen application. The new recommendations recogni ze different N response curves with yield and grain protein within three state agri-climatology zones. The reco mmendations use the "return to N" method, which vary the N recommendation based on crop price and N costs. The resulting rate is adjusted based on... D. Franzen, G. Endres, J. Lukach, R.

2. Crop Yield Relationship to Remote Sensing Data Using Intensified Weighted Nonlinear Regression ModelsYield prediction is important for making in-season agronomic input decisions as well as for greater logistical decisions. In predicting the crop yield based on ground-based active optical sensing data, the ordinary statistical unweighted linear or nonlinear regression models are the most popular choices. However, these unweighted models may not be accurate enough for practical use because they are based on the assumption that each data point for regression is obtained with equal precision and that... |
3. Effect of Phosphorus and Potassium Application on the Growth and Yield of a 14 Year Old Miscanthus X Giganteus StandMiscanthus x gigantues (miscanthus) is a perennial C4 grass grown for renewable bioenergy and bioproducts. Despite its known low nutrient requirements, the specific fertilization needs of miscanthus remain poorly constrained, especially for older stands. This study aims to guide nutrient management practices for miscanthus by determining the demand for phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) fertilization and identifying the soil testing values at which these nutrients optimize yields. To address this... A. Larson, E. Heaton, N. Boersma, J. Studt, S. Emran, M. Mcdaniel, A. Vanloocke |
