Nitrogen Management Key In Conservation Tilliage Crop Production Dr. Donald J Eckert |
| Subsurface Placement Best In Reduced-Till Drs. R.E. Lamond, W.B. Gordon, D.L. Fjell Kansas research show importance of nutrient management/hybrid selection in boosting crop yield. (PDF, 2 pages, 194 KB) |
| High Residue Producing Crops and Reduced-Till Improve Soil Productivity Dr. J Havlin and L.W. Lohry Studies show how practice reduces soil erosion and increases soil organic matter to produce both yield and economic benefits. (PDF, 3 pages, 33 KB) |
| Starters Respond More Favorably in Reduced-Tillage Environments Dr. Paul E. Fixen Studies are showing crop responses in reduced-tillage systems outperform those in conventional-tillage. (PDF, 3 pages, 18 KB) |
| Rule Number One for High Yields in Reduced Tillage: Proper Management Dr. Jay W. Johnson Selecting good hybrids, planting on time, minimizing crop pests, and properly supplying nutrient needs are among essentials outlines by Ohio researcher. (PDF, 2 pages, 16 KB) |
| Does Pattern of Root Development Explain Variances in Crop Response? Larry Oldham and Dr. George Rehm Minnesota ridge-till studies suggest corn hybrids with shallower root system patterns may respond better to potash applications in early growth stages. (PDF, 2 pages, 35 KB) |
| SPRING |
| Boron Boosts Pistachio Yields Drs. Patrick H. Brown, Louise Ferguson, and Geno Picchioni California researchers find foliar applications are most effective after three year trials. Timing of application is critical. (PDF, 3 pages, 19 KB) |
| ATS: The Multi-Use Sulfur Fertilizer Dr. R. J. Goos A secondary nutrient many agriculturists now think of as primary is part of the makeup of every living organism. (PDF, 2 pages, 49 KB) |
| Effective Sulfur Management FFF Review A secondary nutrient many agriculturists now think of as primary is part of the makeup of every living organism. (PDF, 3 pages, 224 KB) |
| Starters With Zinc Increase Bean Yields Dr. Alan D. Blaylock Wyoming studies also show yields increase and plants mature more quickly with later plantings. (PDF, 3 pages, 20 KB) |
| Phosphorus Improves Yields In Corn/Wheat Rotation Drs. M. Ashraf, G.M. Pierzynski, W.B. Gordon, R.E. Lamond Researchers report, however, varying P levels in soil had an effect on some responses. (PDF, 2 pages, 18 KB) |
| SUMMER |
| Injecting N Cuts Application Rate in Half? Drs. R. K. Roberts, D. C. Gerloff, D. D. Howard Could be, say University of Tennessee researchers who set up models comparing broadcasting with injecting UAN in no-till corn. (PDF, 2 pages, 16 KB) |
| Effective Boron Management FFF Review Though used in micro amounts, this vital nutrient plays a crucial role in a plant’s health and development. (PDF, 3 pages, 128 KB) |
| Injection is Most Efficient Method of UAN Placement C.L. Mann and Drs. D. B. Mengel and S. E. Hawkins Comparison trials show effects of timing, application methods, and nitrification inhibitors on no-till corn yeilds. (PDF, 3 pages, 18 KB) |
| Foliar Fertilization Bumps Potato Yields in Northwest Dr. Larry K. Hiller Rate and timing of application, plus host of other considerations, are critical in applying foliars to potatoes. (PDF, 3 pages, 20 KB) |
| FALL |
| Starters Bump Sorghum Yields 18 Percent by Drs. W.B. Gordon and D.A. Whitney Kansas researchers also find fluid starters applied at right N:P ratio improve early season growth and hasten maturity. (PDF, 3 pages, 19 KB) |
| Sorghum Yields Similar In Placement Trials Drs. F.W. Chichester and J.E. Morrison, Jr. Researchers postulate soil moisture level may affect crop response in surface vs. subsurface comparison trials. (PDF, 2 pages, 19 KB) |
| How Can Cotton Plants Best Exploit Potassium In Soil? Dr. G.L. Mullins, C.H. Burmester, G.L. Pate In search of an answer, Alabama researchers vary positioning of K in soil profile to study its effects on crop yield, K uptake, and root length density. (PDF, 2 pages, 18 KB) |
| Managing Reduced Tillage Systems Dr. Raun Lohry Nutrient and residue management are key components in a cohesive program to maximize crop yields. (PDF, 3 pages, 18 KB) |
| Phosphorus Rate Affects Phosphorus Movement Drs. B. Eghball, D.H. Sander and J. Skopp Nebraska researchers look at effects of different application rates and different soils on phosphorus diffusion as well as phosphorus longevity. (PDF, 2 pages, 15 KB) |
