1. N-Fertilizer Recovery Efficiency by Corn Using Controlled Release UreaLimited research has been conducted on the use of 15N-labeled controlled release urea fertilizers under field conditions for corn production. The objectives of this study were to: 1) evaluate the fate of N derived from a blend of two enhanced efficiency N fertilizers in corn plants throughout the growing season; and 2) to determine the N recovery efficiency of the two N sources from a blended application. A field study was conducted during the 2015-2016 growing season at Iracemápolis,... H. Gonzalez, D. Ruiz diaz, C. Filho, P. Trivelin |
2. Effect of Climatic Variability on Grain YieldsThere are three cycles in climate and weather that affect the north central part of the United States. They are (1) a long term cycle of global temperature changes; (2) an 18.5 year wet and dry cycle; and (3) the El Ni�o cycle. ... |
3. In Search of EAN of Spring WheatMany spring wheat varieties respond reliably to enhanced ammoniunl nutrition (EAN) in the greenhouse. Three field studies were established in 1992 to determine if similar responses could be obtained in the field. Butte 86 spring wheat was fertilized (100 Ib N/A) with calcium nitrate, urea, urea + DCD, forestry-grade (0.1 g) urea pellets and forestry-grade urea pellets + DCD. The goal was to provide wheat with a large range of a1nmonium:nitrate ratios and to determine the effect 011 wheat development... |
4. Strategies for Establishing Management Zones for Site Specific Nutrient ManagementRecent precision agriculture research has focused on the use of management zones as a method to define areas for variable application of crop inputs. The goal of our work was to determine the relative importance of terrain information, aerial photographs, magnetic induction maps, and yield maps to define management zones. This work was conducted on a center-pivot irrigated field located near Gibbon. NE that has been planted to continuous corn for at least five years. Remotely sensed bare-soil images,... |
5. Site-Specific Management of Iron Deficiency in CornThe addition of FeS04mH20 in the seed row increases corn (Zea mays L.) yield in areas with Fe deficiency-induced chlorosis. Our objectives were to determine the correct application rate of FeS04.H20 for irrigated corn, identi9 the spatial distribution of Fe deficiency, and alleviate deficiency symptoms with targeted FeS04.H20 applications. Eleven site-years were selected for small-plot studies in western Kansas. At these fields, soil CaC03 content in chlorotic or problematic deficient areas of the... |
6. Measuring Water-Extractable Phosphorus in Manures to Predict Phosphorus Concentrations in RunoffWater-extractable phosphorus (WEP) in manures can influence the risk of P losses in runoff when manures are land applied. There is some uncertainty about how WEP in manures should be determined. Specifically, are WEP measurements affected by manure sample handling before analysis, and what manure extraction procedures are most appropriate for predicting potential P runoff losses after manure application? We evaluated several manure handling and extraction variables in determinations of WEP in manures... |
