Post-Emergent Nitrogen Applications Have Potential for Increasing N-use Efficiency in Spring Grains Drs. G. Lafond, S. Brandt, W. May, C. Holzapfel and A. Johnston Provisos are that some starter N is applied at time of seeding, but the amount of starter N is dependent on how much risk the grower is willing to assume by going with more N after crop emergence. Issue 56, Vol. 15, No. 2 - Early Spring 2007 - Pages 8-11 (PDF, 4 pages, 704 KB)
Applying Some Starter N at Seeding Critical in Spring Wheat and Canola Drs. G. Lafond, S. Brandt, W. May, C. Grant and A. Johnston Canadian researchers speculate that 50 percent of total N required should be applied at seeding to minimize risks with post-emergent N applications.

UAN Demonstrates Its Effectiveness In Western Australia Special: Industry at Work Advantages of fluids catching on in Western Australia where their use is expanding. Issue 49, Vol. 13, No. 3 - Spring 2005 - Pages 12-13 (PDF, 2 pages, 54 KB)
NBPT Reduces Seedling Damage In UAN Trials Drs. C.A. Grant, D.A. Derksen, D. McLaren Canadian no-till canola studies find NBPT helps maintain stand density when increasing rates of side-banded UAN in certain soils. Issue 29, Vol. 8, No. 2 - Spring 2000 - Pages 16-19 (PDF, 3 pages, 37.5 KB)
What About ‘One Pass’ Fertilization/Seeding Drs. Adrian M. Johnston and Cynthia Grant Canadian studies with liquid show minimal effect on wheat germination and maintenance of yields. Not so with barely and canola. Issue 29, Vol. 8, No. 2 - Spring 2000 - Pages 8-11 (PDF, 3 pages, 23.5 KB)
High Fertilizer Rates Placed Near Seed Benefit Wheat/Canola Drs. L.D. Bailey and C.A. Grant Studies, using fluids on zero- and conventional-till, show greater risk with canola then wheat. Issue 18, Vol. 5, No. 3 - Summer 1997 - Pages 20-23 (PDF, 4 pages, 24.8 KB)
Multi-Crop Responds To Starters Vary Drs. Paul E. Fixen and Raun D. Lohry Researchers report on yield responses to starters applied on soybeans, canola, sorghum, potatoes, and sugar beets. Issue 5, Vol. 2, No. 2 - Winter 1994 - Pages 14-16 (PDF, 3 pages, 19.2 KB)
