The fate and transport of Phosphorus in turfgrass ecosystems
Phosphorus losses from turfgrass areas are perceived to contribute to water quality problems, yet a comprehensive review of P fate in turfgrass ecosystems is lacking. According to available data in the literature, phosphorus fertilizer inputs (2–10 kg ha–1) slightly exceed the estimated outputs of phosphorus in clippings (0.4–7.5 kg ha–1). Sediment losses from turf areas are negligible, generally ...

Uptake of point source depleted 15n fertilizer by neighboring corn plants
Ground-based active (self-illuminating) sensors make it possible to collect canopy data that are useful for making on-the-go N fertilizer application decisions. These technologies raise questions about plant-to-plant competition for targeted fertilizer N applications. This study evaluated the extent to which fertilizer N applied to an individual corn (Zea mays L.) plant might be intercepted by ...

Soybean response to inoculation and nitrogen application following long-term grass pasture
Current demand for soybean grain [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] may lead to a conversion of pasture and Conservation Reserve Program fields into soybean or corn (Zea mays L.) production. Our objective was to determine the effect of soybean seed inoculation with Bradyrhizobium spp. and fertilizer N application rate on soybean productivity planted 1 and 2 yr after conversion to row crop production. ...

Safe seed-placed fertilizer practices and equipment limits
When it comes to applying seed-placed fertilizer, it is important to find the suitable application rate for each specific soil type and composition. But it is also important to understand that seeding equipment and technology is a factor, and may impact growers’ fertilizer rates. The seed-safe rate for fertilizers relies on numerous factors. Crop choice, soil composition, pH levels, ...

Cuphea nitrogen uptake and seed yield response to nitrogen fertilization
Cuphea (Cuphea viscosissima Jacq. x C. lanceolata W.T. Aiton, PSR23) is an oilseed crop that is a rich source of medium-chain fatty acids. Progress has been made on improving cuphea agronomically, but little is known about N fertility requirements for optimum cuphea production. The objective of this study was to determine the N necessary for maximizing seed yield and oil content. Experiment 1 was ...

Will variable-rate nitrogen fertilization using corn canopy reflectance sensing deliver environmental benefits?
Within-field variability of corn (Zea mays L.) N need calls for development of precision fertilizer application strategies. One approach many are investigating is in-season canopy reflectance sensing. Justification for this strategy partly rests with the premise it will improve N use and reduce N loss from fields. The objective of this study was to determine the potential environmental benefits ...

Soil properties and crop yields in response to mixed paper mill sludges, dairy cattle manure, and inorganic fertilizer application
The contribution of organic wastes to crop yields and soil fertility may be influenced by their composition and the soil type. This 6-yr study (2001–2006) evaluated the effects of repeated additions of mineral fertilizers (MF), mixed paper mill sludges (PMS) (18, 36, and 54 Mg ha–1), dairy cattle manure (DCM) (36 Mg ha–1) alone or with reduced mineral fertilizer (60% NPK) (RMF) and a control, on ...

How to maintain soil fertility
In order to maintain soil fertility, some low-yield soil (acid soil, alkali soil and salt soil), chemical improvers and irrigation should be used to improve, remove obstacles and improve the fertility level. In addition, reasonable cultivation and rotation should be carried out to regulate the nutrients and water in the soil and prevent some nutrient deficiency and water vapor imbalance. 1. ...

Selection and comparison of granule and powder organic fertilizer equipment
Why use granular organic fertilizer At the beginning of the development of organic fertilizer, the product is powdery. Powder fertilizer is easy to cause segregation, difficult to control caking, poor mobility, difficult to realize mechanized fertilization, and easy to form dust in the process of application and loss. One of the ways to solve the problems caused by powder fertilizer is to realize ...
