1. Development of Insite VRN as an Effective Nutrient Management ToolGrowers have significantly increased their yield levels in corn and wheat in the last 10 years. As yields increase. the amount of nutrients required has also increased to supply the crop with needed plant nutrition. Fertilizer application rates in excess of plant needs can increase the likelihood that the fertilizer may end up in ground water and streams. Mosaic developed a nutrient application tool, called Ins i te VRN, which illore accurately positions the fertilizer where it is needed for maximum... |
2. Development of Field InSite as an Effective Nutrient Management ToolNitrogen. phosphorus, and potassium are essential nutrients for crop production. Crop nutrient management is critical to the success of any farming operation. Land stewardship is a concern for most producers as long as yields and profitability are not affected significantly. While farmers are eager to improve the efficiency with which they apply nutrients, maintaining expected crop revenue per acre is equally important. Higher fertilizer costs have increased the desire to find better ways to apply... |
3. The Future of Soil Fertility - My Two CentsThis presentation will provide information of what a large cooperative is currently providing customers in the realm of nutrient management. Additionally, some insight will be provided on how other aspects of nutrient management (global markets, production technologies, etc) are being evaluated. Finally, some general ideas will be shared regarding the future needs of the retail sector along with some research ideas. ... R. Mullen |
4. Technology, Innovation, and the Future of Soil FertilityThis panel will focused on how technology is being used in the practice of soil fertility and nutrient management. Panelists will also discuss how they’ve incorporated new and old soil fertility concepts into their approach to guiding fertilizer use. Lastly, we will discuss where soil fertility is going as a scientific discipline. ... H.M. Brown, W. Berg, R. Mullen |
