1. A Mechanistic Approach to Nitrogen Fertilizer Recommendations

In efforts to improve Nitrogen (N) management, many new methodologies involving advanced technology such as optical sensors are being utilized. Although these new technologies have been proven to improve N management, their use in production agriculture is relatively low. The majority of farmers are still using mechanistic equations or simply pounds per bushel to determine their N rates due to low cost and ease of use. However, most of these N recommendation equations are becoming antiquated, and...

2. Reducing the Severity of Phyophthora Root Rot Damage in Soybeans with Selected Management Options

Phytophthora root rot of soybeans (PRR) is a major concern for soybean growers in south-central and southeastern Minnesota, where it can be responsible for major yield reductions. In these regions, PRR is generally a serious problem when soybeans are grown on poorly drained soils and/or there is a moderate amount of rainfall within 2 to 3 days of planting. Previous research has shown that PRR causes a reduction in the number of harvestable plants per acre and this is the major contributing factor...

3. Effect of Time of N Application for Corn

The economic benefit associated with the application of N fertilizers for corn has been known for over 5 decades. As a result, over 99 % of the farmers in Illinois apply N fertilizers when corn is grown. Unlike phosphorus and potassium, there is no good soil test to predict the amount of N needed, instead, farmers use a factor times yield potential with appropriate credits for legume and other N sources to set N rates. While this works well over a number of years, there are years when less N will...

4. Early Season Nutrient Uptake from Combinations of N itrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium Applies in Starter Fertilizer in Two Corn Hybrids

Conventional 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...
