1. Optimal Phosphorus Response in Site-specific Farming Site-specific farming has provided an opportunity to collect large amounts of field data, but traditional agronomic yield response models have not been developed to exploit this mformation. This research presents a yield model that incorporates detailed site-specific field information (e.g., soil pH. soil test P, K, and N, fertilizer rates), providing improved fertilizer decision making. A quadratic yield response function and a modified asymptotic Mitscherlich function are compared for irrigated... Download paper
2. Should We Abandon Soil Testing and Yield Goals in Estimating Nitrogen Rates for Corn If the prices of corn and fertilizer-N and the shape of the N response function relating crop yield to the amount of fertilizer used are known, calculating an economically optimal N rate (EONR) for maximizing the net return to applied N is straightforward: the EONR is the N rate at which no firher increase in net return occurs. In most cropping systems and under common price scenarios, crop yield at the EONR is within 95 to 99% of the maximum yield obtained for the specific management package. In... Download paper
3. Effect of Biosolids Application On Plant Available Nutrients Biosolids are a by-product of municipal wastewater treatment process which is extensively treated to meet all applicable federal and state regulations so that they can it can be safely applied to land. Approximately, 7.9 million dry metric tons of biosolids are produced annually in the United States (U.S.) and over 55% of this amount is beneficially utilized through land application (NEBRA, 2007). Farmland application of biosolids is considered to be one of the most economical and environmentally... Download paper
4. Survey of the Tissue Nutrient Status of Winter Wheat in Kentucky A field survey conducted in western Kentucky (KY) was initiated to determine if University of Kentucky soil fertility recommen dations for winter wheat production was adequate. Twenty- nine fields in 15 western KY counties were iden tified by county extension agents for sampling. Soil and tissue samples were collected for anal ysis in a 150 foot by 150 foot sampling area. Approximately 100 flag leaf samp les were collected, air-dried, ground, and analyzed for N, P, K, Mg, Ca, S, B, Zn, Mn, Fe, and... Download paper
