How Much Nitrogen is in Your Corn Field?
2013-05-07 20:50:00| Corn & Soybean Digest
Source: University of Illinois Nitrogen loss is difficult to predict because it depends in many factors such as time of N application, type of N source, soil type and temperature and the amount of precipitation received. While it is difficult to know how much N is lost without a direct analysis of soil N, you can determine what to do about N applications this growing season. read more

Air or Nitrogen Hurricane Screw Boosters
2013-04-24 13:40:00| Offshore Technology
Hurricane compressors are second-to-none. They are smaller, lighter and still pack as much power as the larger and heavier comparable units available in the marketplace today.

Nitrogen Efficiency, Application Timing Increase Corn Yields
2013-04-22 22:29:00| Corn & Soybean Digest
Todays hybrids produce more corn yield per unit of nitrogen than older hybrids, according to a new Purdue study. Modern hybrids absorb more than half of their final N content after flowering. In fact, they absorb 27% more total N from the soil after flowering than hybrids grown between 1950 and 1990, says a newly released Purdue study. Todays hybrids absorb more grain-N during grain fill, as opposed to N being remobilized from plant leaves and stems. The higher amount and duration of N uptake contributed to better grain yields, even as actual grain N concentrations decline; hybrids are much more efficient. But as corn plants increase N use, they increase their uptake of other nutrients. read more

Nitrogen has key role in estimating CO2 emissions from land use change
2013-04-19 22:59:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: A new global-scale modeling study that takes into account nitrogen -- a key nutrient for plants -- estimates that carbon emissions from human activities on land were 40 percent higher in the 1990s than in studies that did not account for nitrogen. Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the University of Bristol Cabot Institute published their findings in the journal Global Change Biology. The findings will be a part of the upcoming Fifth Assessment Report from the Intergovernmental...
