1. Nitrogen Recommendations for Wheat using the Chlorophyll MeterThe use of a hand held chlorophyll meter showed good promise in helping to make N recommendations for wheat on a field basis. Using 5 site-years on well drained soils over a 2- year period, a correlation index (R2) of 0.88 was found relating the March (Feekes 5) N needed for optimum yield with a differential chlorophyll reading. Research on this method will be continued and expanded to field trials. Soils in less than a well drained class may require a separate calibration or the method may not be... |
2. A Minnesota-Wide Assessment of Critical Pre-Plant and in-Season Soil Nitrate for Adjusting Nitrogen Rate GuidelinesThe pre-plant (PPNT) and pre-sidedress (PSNT) soil nitrate tests are often used as indicators of soil nitrogen (N) availability in Minnesota. The assessment of available soil nitrogen (N) provides corn (Zea mays L.) growers with key information on N credits to adjust their N fertilizer rates. However, current N management recommendations in Minnesota were based on research conducted 40-yr ago and did not specify differences between environments and management. Through a comprehensive...
