1. Influence of Tillage Systems on Corn Yields and Soil Test ValuesA long term tillage study was initiated at the Greenley Memorial Research Center (Novelty, MO) in 1976 to look at the effects of 4 tillage systemsoncornproduction. Thestudywasinitiatedandconductedby researchers in the Agricultural Engineering Department. Agronomy has become involved in the study beginning in 1985 to assess the effects of tillage systems on soil chemical and physical properties. The upland soils at this site are poorly drained and are generally refered to as "claypan" soils. The climate... |
2. No-till Nitrogen Management Research in MissouriNo-till nitrogen management research on corn in Missouri has focused on the field response of N sources and placement. Results suggest consistent significant response to the use of a non-volatile N source when broadcast on the soil surface compared to N sources that contain urea and potentially can lose ammonia through volatilization. Knifed application of N in no-till has . consistently provided higher yields and N uptake compared to either surface band or broadcast application of potentially volatile... |
3. Survey of Corn Response to Fertilizer Sulfur in MissouriAbstract Fertilizer sulfur (S) rate studies were conducted during 1991 and 1992 at 53 sites located throughout Missouri on soils that were primarily silt loam or heavier. Sites were selected on the basis of a high yield potential since a common belief among farmers and fertilizer dealers is that the greater crop S requirement of high yields exceeds the S supply from the soil and incidental sources. Either ammonium sulfate or ammonium thosulfate were applied at planting or wihn four weeks following... |
4. Site Specific Nitrogen and Irrigation Management Across Nebraska Agro-ecological ZonesNitrogen leaching below hrrow irrigated ground has caused nitrate contamination in Nebraska's groundwater. Alternate row irrigation and alternate row nitrogen fertilization is proposed as a method to decrease water use and decrease nitrogen leaching. Nitrogen was applied at a uniform and variable rates based on spring grid sampling for nitrate and soil organic matter. The experiment was conducted at three sites in Nebraska that represent a range of growing conditions. At these sites the average growing... |
5. Site-Specific Nitrogen and Irrigation Management Across Nebraska Agro-Ecological ZonesNitrogen leaching below hrrow-irrigated ground has caused nitrate contamination in Nebraska's groundwater. Alternate row hrrow irrigation and alternate row nitrogen fertilization is proposed as a method to decrease water use and decrease nitrogen leaching. Nitrogen (N) was applied at a uniform and variable rate based on spring grid sampling for nitrate. The experiment was conducted at three sites in Nebraska that represent a range of growing conditions. At these sites, the average growing degree-days... |
6. Study on Phosphorus and Nitrogen Concentration of Corn Adapted in South DakotaThough nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are vital in several physiological and developmental processes in plants and animals, they pose several environmental, nutritional and health problems, if present in excess amounts. Reduction in the excess input of these nutrients into the soil, thereby reducing environmental problem and consequently nutritional and health problem, can be achieved by balancing their concentration in animal feed. Therefore, this research aims to quantify the nitrogen and phosphorus... |
7. Corn Nitrogen Management Following Cover Crops and the Microbial ResponseCover crops (CCs) may provide tools for fertilizer management and opportunities to influence soil biological communities. However, corn (Zea mays L.) growth and microbial response remain unclear when corn nitrogen (N) management strategies are practiced in combination with specific CCs. Field studies were conducted in 2015 and 2016 to evaluate the effects of no CC, Daikon radish [Raphanus sativus (L). var. The Buster], and Forage oat [Avena sativa (L.) var. Magnum]... K. Steinke, J.
