2. Fertilizer Recommendations Based upon Nutrient Removal or Soil Testing- A Spatial AnalysisCosts for nutrient management are generally high in crop production systems. Those costs are associated with activities related to: a) gathering information regarding soil fertility and plant nutrition for a field, b) acquisition of the actual soil amendments intended to improve the field's fertility and future crop nutrition, and c) application of the purchased soil amendments at the right rate in the appropriate place within the field. Information gathering usually consists of plant tissue andlor... |
3. Utilizing Fertilizer Technologies to Reduce Nitrate Leaching in the Central Sands Region of WisconsinLeaching of nitrate into the groundwater has been a continuing and extensively researched problem in the sandy soils of Wisconsin. However, no proven solution to this problem has been identified as yet. Research results from our studies in 2009 showed that several products had potential in reducing nitrate-nitrogen (NO 3-N) leaching. Although not always statistically significant, one slow-release fertilizer, Environmentally Smart Nitrogen (ESN), produced greater yields than conventional fertilizer.... |
