1. Phosphorus Sorption Behavior of Kentucky Soils with Varying Indigenous Phosphorus ContentThe risk of phosphorus (P) losses from agricultural lands through surface transport to waterways increases with increasing levels of soil P. Agricultural soils in the Inner and Outer Bluegrass of Kentucky have high indigenous P content. This study investistigates the phsophorus sorption characteristics that influence the soils potential for P loss to water bodies. Four soils from the Inner Bluegrass and four soils from the Outer Bluegrass were identified as eing agriculturally significant soils not... |
2. Nitrogen Management for No-Till Production SystemsNitrogen management practices including rates and sources were evaluated in high residue no-till production systems involving corn and grain sorghum. A urease inhibitor, N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT) was evaluated. This research also assessed the impact of type of previous residue on performance of surface applied N. A chlorophyll meter was evaluated as an in-field N assessment tool. Results to date indicate that NBPT is effective in improving the performance of surface broadcast urea.... |
