1. Practical Farmers of Iowa On-farm Research ProgramPractical Farmers of Iowa (PFI) has been leading and conducting on-farm research since 1987. The organization has staff scientists to help design experiments based on questions from participating farmers. Farmers are cooperators in research and they often collaborate with other farmers on the same project. Ideas for projects are considered at the annual Cooperators’ Meeting in December each year. Cooperators describe what was done on their farm, why they did it, and what they found. They... S. Gailans |
2. Two-sided Banding of Nitrogen and Sulfur Fertilizers Improves Maize Yield and Nutrient Use Efficiency in Midwestern Cropping SystemsEfficient fertilizer management is essential for maximizing crop yield while minimizing environmental impacts. Optimizing fertilizer placement is a key strategy for improving nutrient recovery and synchronizing nutrient availability with crop demand. Traditionally, fertilizer banding in Midwestern maize (Zea mays L.) systems is done on one side of the plant. This study evaluates the impact of two-sided banding of nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) fertilizers on maize yield and nutrient use... A. Yakubu, A. Ludolph, A. Diop, A. Yakubu, R. Roth |
