1. Strategies for Establishing Management Zones for Site Specific Nutrient ManagementRecent precision agriculture research has focused on the use of management zones as a method to define areas for variable application of crop inputs. The goal of our work was to determine the relative importance of terrain information, aerial photographs, magnetic induction maps, and yield maps to define management zones. This work was conducted on a center-pivot irrigated field located near Gibbon. NE that has been planted to continuous corn for at least five years. Remotely sensed bare-soil images,... |
2. Measuring Water-Extractable Phosphorus in Manures to Predict Phosphorus Concentrations in RunoffWater-extractable phosphorus (WEP) in manures can influence the risk of P losses in runoff when manures are land applied. There is some uncertainty about how WEP in manures should be determined. Specifically, are WEP measurements affected by manure sample handling before analysis, and what manure extraction procedures are most appropriate for predicting potential P runoff losses after manure application? We evaluated several manure handling and extraction variables in determinations of WEP in manures... |
3. Foliar Fertilizer and Pyracolstrobin Fungicide Combinations for CornIncorporating a foliar applied fert ilizer with fungicide application could reduce application costs, improve disease suppression, increase nutrient re sponse, and enhance the management of crop response to environmental conditions within th e growing season. A two-year field trial was initiated in 2008 at three sites in northeast, southeast and northwest Mi ssouri. Treatments consisted of a factorial arrangement of 13 diffe rent commercially-available foliar fertilizers containing both macro- and... |
