1. Effect of Intensive Management Practices on Wheat Yields and ProfitabilityConsiderable interest in improving wheat yields and profitability has been shown throughout the U.S. over the past ten years. Much of this interest has resulted from the dramatic yield increases achieved by English producers during that time - an annual increase of 5.0 bushellacre per year (Figure 1). During that same time period, wheat producers in the U.S. have shown a much lower rate of increase in wheat yields - 1.02 bushellacre per year (Figure 2). Missouri growers have been no exception to... |
2. 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... |
