1. Identifying Critical Sources of Phosphorus Export from Agricultural WatershedsPhosphorus (P) is an essential element for plant and animal growth, and its input to agriculture is necessary to maintain profitable crop and animal production. Eutrophication, the natural aging of lakes or streams brought on by nutrient enrichment, can be accelerated by P inputs to fresh waters from human activities (Carpenter et al., 1998; Schindler. 1977). Eutrophication has been identified as the main problem in surface waters withimpaired water quality (USEPA. 1996). It restricts water use for... |
2. Early Season Nutrient Uptake from Combinations of N itrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium Applies in Starter Fertilizer in Two Corn HybridsConventional small plot field trials were establ ished to study the effect nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) applied as starter ferti lizer on early season growth and nutrient uptake of two corn hybrids with a nd without the Bt-rootworm gene. Ei ght locations were studied over two years comparing a non-starter check, N only, K only, NP, NPK, and NK starter fertilizer combinations on early season growth and nutrient uptake. Sites tested High initially in both P and K. One or more starter... |
3. Effects of Glyphosate Application and Manganese Fertiization on Leaf Manganese Concentration and Yield of Glyphosate-Resistant SoybeanGlyphosate-resistant (GR) soybean is widely accep ted in the United States. Recent research in Indiana and elsewhere has observe d that post-emergence foliar applications of glyphosate may cause or exacerbate manganese (Mn) deficiency and then limit yield of GR soybeans on low Mn availability soils. The objectives of this study were to 1) better understand how glyphosate application(s) might reduce the up take and translocation of Mn in GR soybean plants, and 2) determine the effectiveness of starter-banded... |
4. Influence of Biological Seed Treatment on Soybean Grain Yield in the U.S.Biological seed treatment in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is a growing market in the U.S., with multiple microbially active ingredients and several proposed benefits. Some of the claimed benefits include improving nitrogen fixation, stimulation of root growth, increasing phosphorus, sulfur, and other nutrient absorption, and control of diseases, with the aim to increase soybean grain yield. Farmers are often bombarded with marketing claims about biological seed treatments. In many... F. Colet, R.A. Vann, S.P. Conley, S.L. Naeve, E.G. Matcham, S. Mourtzinis, L.E. Lindsey |
