Nitrogen Testing Tool May Improve Corn Profits
2013-05-15 21:37:00| Corn & Soybean Digest
The latest fertility technology means that you can reassess your corn crops nitrogen needs every 24 hours, reducing nitrogen inputs and saving corn input expenses. You can now assess your corn’s nitrogen (N) needs every 24 hours. The Adapt-N online computer model, from Cornell University, simulates the complex processes in a corn field: local precipitation and temperatures, soil type, soil organic matter and slope, previous crops, inputs, tillage, planting date, population, hybrids, rotation, type and date of starter and yield potential. Using high-resolution weather information (3x3-mile grids), the web model tailors site-specific N recommendations to your farm in almost real time. read more

6 Tips for Postemergence Application of Pre-Emergence Corn Herbicides
2013-05-14 22:34:00| Corn & Soybean Digest
Source: Ohio State University One of the problems with a wet start to the season when planting gets compressed into short periods is the lack of time to apply preemergence herbicides and 28% before corn emerges. Most pre-emergence corn herbicides can be applied to emerged corn, and some of them have enough foliar activity to control small, emerged weeds without the need to add postemergence (post) herbicides. read more
