1. Evaluation of Nitrogen Management Practices in No-till Corn ProductionExperiments were conducted fiom 1995 to 1998 at the Dixon Springs Agricultural Center of the University of Illinois and the Belleville Research Center of Southern Illinois University to evaluate agronomically and economically several nitrogen (N) management options, including the use of the urease inhibitor Agrotaii, in no-till corn production. Compared in these studies were N sources (urea, UAN, ammonium nitrate, and anhydrous ammonia), placement (dribble vs. broadcast for surface-applied N and... |
2. Effect of Manure Sources on Soil Phosphorus DynamicsPhosphorus (P) is essential for crop production, but it also causes water quality issues such as algal blooms. Crops typically utilize only 10-20% of applied P; the remainder accumulates in soil or is eroded/leached into water bodies, resulting in reduced fertilizer use efficiency and increased risk of eutrophication. This study evaluated the effects of different organic fertilization strategies on soil P pools across two sites in Ohio. Treatments included two manure-amended sites, one receiving... J. Singh, J.
