NPK Compound Fertilizer Development and Fertilizer Plant Production
Chemical fertilizer provides nutrients for continuous agricultural production, but single chemical fertilizer hasn't high utilization rate, limited promotion ability to crops, and a large amount of application is not conducive to crop growth. NPK compound fertilizer production has become the main trend of fertilizer. The granulation process of NPK fertilizer production line can make basic ...

Agronomically Speaking: Fall Fertility? From Soil Test to Prescriptions
Farmers understand that soil fertility is a key component of growing healthy and high yielding crops. While there is much debate on how we accomplish soil fertility and health, there are some general items that are helpful to remember. However, because it was an extremely wet year for many across the country it is even more important to soil test this year. Some of the nutrients ...

Evaluation of zone soil sampling approaches for phosphorus and potassium based on corn and soybean response to fertilization
Soil sampling approaches have been compared based on soil-test variation. This study evaluated sampling approaches for P and K based on yield response to fertilization. Strip trials were established on four fields for P and three fields for K managed with corn (Zea mays L.) and soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) rotations and evaluated 3 or 4 yr (27 site-years). Treatments replicated three to four ...

Phosphorus runoff is a big problem, but Florida is getting closer to a solution
Excess phosphorus runoff and emissions from urban areas and croplands, animal feedlots, sewage treatment plants, and combustion of fossil fuels has been blamed for the dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico, toxic algal blooms in Lake Erie and problems in numerous other lakes and rivers around the world. For years unwanted nutrients were also choking the Florida Everglades, but in a surprising ...
