1. Improving PSNT Based Sidedress N Recommendations for Corn with Site Specific FactorsThe pre-sidedress soil nitrate test (PSNT) has been found to be a valuable tool for improving nitrogen recommendations for corn grown in humid regions of the country. The PSNT has been especially useful for nunaging N on fmls where organic sources of N, like animal manures are important. This test was proposed by Magdoff et al. in 1984 and has been studied extensively since then (Magdoff et al., 1990; Roth et al., 1992; Fox et al., 1989; Blackmer et al., 1989; Klausner et a]., 1993, and Meisinger... |
2. Nitrogen Fertilizer Equivalency of Anaerobically Digested Municipal SludgeCrop yield response to municipal sludge is largely affected by the amount of nitrogen (N) made available during the growing season. The effect of sludge rate and N fertilizer rate on either grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.)] or corn [Zea mays (L.)] yield response was studied on three fms in Lancaster county, Nebraska. A combination of five rates of dewatered (80% H20) anaerobically digested sludge and five rates of N fertilizer (NH&03) were applied before planting and incorporated by discing within... |
