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. 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... |
3. 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 |
