1. Subsoiling No-tillage CornCurrently, over half of the corn in Kentucky is no-till planted. Many fields have received little tillage in the last 10 to 20 years. Many producers wonder if soil compaction increases with time on these long term no-till fields due to annual trafficking with heavy equipment. Subsoiling implements are available that allow subsurface tillage while preserving the surface mulch layer. This allows for continued no-till planting while introducing some tillage into the cropping system. Some producers are... |
2. Poly-Coated Urea Responses For Winter Wheat In The Northern PlainsManaging nitrogen applications for winter wheat production and quality includes limiting N volatilization with surface urea applications in the northern Great Plains. Two winter wheat sites located in central and western (W) South Dakota were established in the fall of 2011. Treatments were broadcast poly-coated urea (ESN) and urea at different blend proportions applied at rates of 0, 40, 60, 80, and 100 lb N/a and two timings (fall and spring). An additional winter wheat site was established in... |
3. Exploratory analysis of event-based edge-of-field phosphorus lossesUnderstanding how the timing of management activities, particularly manure and fertilizer applications, impacts P losses in runoff can improve farmers’ decisions on when to apply nutrients. The University of Wisconsin Discovery Farms and Discovery Farms Minnesota have been monitoring edge-of-field nutrient losses since 2004. This data set includes over 125 site-years of runoff across 26 fields and includes 1574 individual runoff events. The objectives of this study are to: (i) determine... |
4. Elucidating How N Management Practices and Excess Water Conditions Affect Corn N Uptake and Grain YieldFlooding and waterlogging events have been more frequent in the Midwest region, causing corn yield penalty nitrogen losses through leaching and denitrification processes. Improving N fertilizer recommendations for areas prone to flood conditions is necessary to minimize N losses and optimize corn yield. This research aimed to determine how N application practices before and after waterlogging events impact corn growth and grain yield. A field experiment was initiated in 2021 in Custar, Ohio using...

5. Influence of Biological Seed Treatment on Soybean Grain Yield in the U.S.Biological seed treatment in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is a growing market in the U.S., with multiple microbially active ingredients and several proposed benefits. Some of the claimed benefits include improving nitrogen fixation, stimulation of root growth, increasing phosphorus, sulfur, and other nutrient absorption, and control of diseases, with the aim to increase soybean grain yield. Farmers are often bombarded with marketing claims about biological seed treatments. In many... F. Colet, R.A. Vann, S.P. Conley, S.L. Naeve, E.G. Matcham, S. Mourtzinis, L.E. Lindsey |
6. Industrial Hemp Response to Nitrogen ApplicationsWith the increasing interest in industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) as a versatile crop for both fiber and grain production, optimizing nitrogen (N) management has become critical for maximizing its productivity. Field experiments were conducted at two locations (Novelty, Albany) in northern Missouri to evaluate the effects of N application rates on industrial hemp growth, biomass, and grain yield. The experiment was set as a randomized complete block design with a split-plot arrangement... A. Nain, G. Kaur , K. Nelson, G. Singh , J. Miller |
