1. Relationship Between Soil P and P in Surface Runoff and Subsurface Drainage- An Overview of Ongoing ResearchNonpoint source pollution fiom agricultural fields has the potential to accelerate eutrophication of fieshwater ecosystems. In a report of water quality in the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency sited agriculture as the primary source of pollution in 60% of impaired river miles, 30% of the impaired lake acres and 15% of estuarine square miles @PA, 1998). Phosphorus, in particular, has received much attention due to its role as limiting nutrient in many fieshwater ecosystems (Correll,... |
2. Variable Fertilizer Nitrogen Application Based on the Delta Yield Index- A Field StudyA quick review of the both the scientific and popular literature indicates that many different approaches have been suggested for the prediction of variable fertilizer N applications in the field. In previous meetings of this conference we have presented the general outline and approach taken for our site-specific crop management project in Ontario. Briefly, historical data sets of grain corn response trials to fertilizer N (encompassing some 300 site-years worth of data) indicated that most yield... |
3. Use and Misuse of Aerial ImageryThroughout the 1990’s agricultural researchers were hitting the sky’s collecting untold amounts of spectral data. The majority of that push quieted down in the early 2000’s as scalability was a constant struggle. However, in the past few years the introduction of affordable and easy to use unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), more cost effective cameras, and significant increase in satellite constellations has reignited the interest in remote sensing that died out a decade...

4. Does Sensor-based Nitrogen Management Maintain Crop Production and Decrease Nitrate-N Leaching?To improve water quality, nitrogen (N) management in corn production systems should shift from current N decision support system [maximum return to N (MRTN)] which suggests a single rate N addition to sensor-based (GreenSeeker) active N management (variable N rate approach). Single rate N recommendations often result in under- and over-N addition and either increase environmental N losses or cause corn yield penalty. Our objectives were to evaluate corn optimum nitrogen N requirement (EORN) in... A. Sadeghpour, M. Guzel, J. Mcgrath, O. Adeyemi, B. Arnall, O. Guzel |
