1. Probability of Success for Practices to Minimize Water Quality ProblemsI would like to spend my time this morning reviewing with you some of the practices and appraoches research has suggested as being useful in controlling quality of both surface water and groundwater. Given the limited time available, I will highlight only a few of the study findings, and confine my remarks primarily to the problems of nitrogen pollution of groundwater and phosphorus contamination of surface waters. This limited review is prompted more by what I perceive to be the major interests... |
2. Chloride Fertilization on Wheat, Corn, and Grain SorghumResearch in the Pacific Northwest and the Northern Great Plains has documented positive cereal grain responses to chloride (CI) fertilization. Field research was conducted in Kansas evaluating CI fertilization on winter wheat, corn, and grain sorghum. Chloride fertilization consistently and significantly increased plant CI concentrations in all crops. Chloride fertilization increased grain yields or one or more winter wheat cultivars at 3 of 4 sites. The most dramatic yield increases were at the... |
