1. Challenges for making intensive soil sampling and VRT Pay. Ongoing Iowa Studies with PhosphorusSoil fertility evaluation and management can be greatly improved with the use of precision agriculture technologies. Differential global positioning systems @GPS), yield monitors, various forms of remote sensing, geographical information system (GIs) computer software, and variable rate technologies are available for use to producers. Intensive soil sampling, crop scouting, and other practices complete the new technological package. Soil testing is a diagnostic tool especially adapted for site-s... |
2. Site Specific Nitrogen and Irrigation Management Across Nebraska Agro-ecological ZonesNitrogen leaching below hrrow irrigated ground has caused nitrate contamination in Nebraska's groundwater. Alternate row irrigation and alternate row nitrogen fertilization is proposed as a method to decrease water use and decrease nitrogen leaching. Nitrogen was applied at a uniform and variable rates based on spring grid sampling for nitrate and soil organic matter. The experiment was conducted at three sites in Nebraska that represent a range of growing conditions. At these sites the average ... |
