1. Manure Brokerage in OhioIn Ohio there are several counties where annual manure production exceeds the requirements of all crops grown in the county. Poor distribution of this manure has created instances where soils have become overloaded with phosphorus, contributing to the phosphorus load of surface waters and creating the potential for long term release of phosphorus into states waters. Nitrogen also becomes an environmental concern as excess nutrient loads are placed on soils, nitrogen is found leaching through tile... |
2. Foliar Manganese and Glyphosate Formulation Yield Effects on Glyphosate-Resistant Soybeans in OhioIn order to address the potential problems associated with glyphosate and manganese applications to glyphosa te-resistant soybeans (Glycine max [L.] Merr.), an experiment with varying glyphosate and manganese micronutrien t formulations and application timing was designed and carried out on two locations in Ohio to test effects on soybean yield. At the location in northwestern Ohio, th e yields for all of the manganese-treated plots were significantly higher ( P=0.1) than the untreated plots, regardless... |
3. Corn Nitrogen Rate Response Trials in Northwest and Westcentral Minnesota, 2007=-2009With the growing number of corn producers and increased acres of corn in NW and WC Minnesota along with the revisions in the Univer sity of Minnesota Corn Nitrogen Guidelines (2006) many northern corn growers were asking a bout the validity of the new nitrogen guidelines for corn production in the region. Prior to 2007, University of Minnesota calibration and correlation data included in the new guidelines did not include any research sites north of Interstate 94. A request for funding from the Minnesota... |
4. Nitrogen Non-Cycling from Cover Crops Grown Before Corn and Spring Wheat-Unexpected Early Project ResultsNitrogen credits in North Dakota State University fertilization recommendations include those anticipated from the previous year annual legume crops (field pea, lentil, soybean, chickpea) and from terminated alfalfa. In addition, it was established in the region that sugarbeet tops returned to the soil may have an N credit potential of up to 80 pounds of N per acre (Crohain and Rixhon, 1967; Moraghan and Smith, 1994a; Moraghan and Smith, 1995a; Moraghan and Smith, 1995b; Franzen et al.,...

5. Carbon and Nitrogen Dynamics: Cover Crop Decomposition during the Following Cash Crop Growing SeasonNitrogen (N) loss from agriculture fields in the Corn Belt contributes to impaired waterways and the development of the “Dead Zone” in the Gulf of Mexico. It has been well established that cover crops can scavenge N, which results in a reduction of N loss via tile drainage. However, the literature suggests that increased C inputs from decomposing cover crop residue may result in N immobilization during the following cash crop growing season andnegative yield impacts. Therefore, the... C. Lacey |
6. Grid Soil Sample Interpolation Using Geographicaly Weighted Regression and Random ForestSoil sampling is useful in agriculture for setting fertilizer application rates. High density soil samples can also be used for variable rate seeding and other precision agriculture applications. Half-acre grid soil samples were collected from 6 soybean fields, and phosphorous (P), potassium (K), and organic matter (OM) were measured. Each soil parameter was interpolated for each field, with terrain attributes as covariates, using two different methods: geographically weighted regression (GWR)... E. Matcham, S. Subburayalu, J.
