1. Variability of Soil Test Phophorus and Management of Phosphorus FertilizerSoil avdable phosphorus (P) can have appreciable spatial variation wluch could result in inefficient ferthzer use. The hlgh cost of mapping ttus variab&ty may make sit2 spedc management of P uneconomic. Seed-placing a small amount of P fertrli2er has been shown to increase gain yield of corn. Therefore. it may have potential for improving P use efficiency. Ah txperiment was conducted to evaluate the spatial pattern of soil test P and the spatial response of applied P fertilizer. The scale of P variability... |
2. Visual Correlation of Aerial Imagery with Topography and Crop YieldA study is currently being conducted on several farms to evaluate the usefulness of aerial imagery of soil and of a growing crop to delineate within-field management zones for the purposes of site-specific management. Presented is information for one site in Kent county Ontario for which correlations between aerial images taken of the soil and of the growing crop with the spatial patterns of measured topography, soil texture, and corn yield were examined. Visual interpretation indicated a very good... |
3. Nitrogen Timing Fertilization Strategies for Winter Wheat in WisconsinEconomically optimum winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production relies on effective N application rate and timing. Previous research in Wisconsin indicates a need to better understand winter wheat response to N rate and application timing for growing conditions specific to the state. This study evaluated the effect of N application timing on yield, economic optimum N rate (EONR), agronomic N use efficiency (NUE), and profitability. A three-year study was conducted at three locations... J.D. Jones, C.A. Laboski, T.W. Andraski |
