1. Comparative N and Dry Matter Dynamics in Corn Ears, Stems, and Leaves During the Critical Period After Early and Late-split Sidedress NThere is currently great interest in the possible agronomic and environmental benefits of split N applications that include a late vegetative sidedress timing. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of N rate and timing of N application on the accumulation of N and dry matter in the ears, stems, and leaves of corn during the critical period (encompassing the period two weeks before to two weeks after silking) in order to understand the differing sensitivity to N stress in these...

2. Adjusting N Recommendations Based on a Previously Grown CropNitrogen recommendations in North Dakota are based on a yield goal multiplied from some empirically derived factor in a linear formula. There are a three adjustments to the N recommendations that result form these formulas (Franzen and Cihacek, 1996). They are the soil test nitrate-N to some depth, a sampling date adjustment ifthe sampling was conducted in the fall prior to September 15, and a previous crop credit. Two of these three adjustments are based on some knowledge regarding mineralization... |
3. Corn Yield Response to Residual Forage Crop Rotation and Manure Amendment Effect in Potato RotationsAccurate prediction of multiple-year N availability froin organic sources is difficult and can complicate nitrogen management for producers using these sources. The objective of this study was to use corn yield and soil N monitoring to evaluate long-term nutrient availability from rotational systems on an irrigated Alfisol in central Michigan. Over a 5-year period, multiple crop sequences were grown with either annual liquid dairy manure at 12,260 L ha-' or conventional mineral fertilizer application... |
4. Evaluation of the Greenseeker Active Sensor for Sugarbeet Cropping System Nitrogen ManagementThe application of adequate, non-excessive rates of N fertilizer to sugarbeets ( Beta vulgaris L.) continues to increase in importance with rising fertilizer costs and industry transitions from yield-based payments to payments weighted towa rd crop quality. The objective of this study is to evaluate the use of an optical sensor for its potential in assessing in-season sugarbeet N status, in-season yield prediction, and total N in foliage on day of harvest. Six N fertilizer treatments, from 0 to 224... |
5. Delayed-Release Nitrogen Fertilizer Effects on In-Season Soil Nitrogen for Michigan Sugarbeet ProductionDelayed-release N fertilizers have received attention for Michigan sugarbeet production as producers seek to improve the timing of N ava ilability to better match plant demand and to maximize plant N use efficiency. The N release ch aracteristics of these products are particularly important in sugarbeet production, where excessive N availability late in the season can have adverse impacts on crop quality. The objective of this research was to evaluate delayed-release N fertilizer sources, alone... |
