3 Best Nitrogen Tests
2013-02-01 21:15:00| Corn & Soybean Digest
Last seasons dry conditions emphasize need for timely soil samplings. It came as no surprise to Tim Mundorf last fall that many post-harvest corn stalk test samples contained high levels of nitrogen (N). The field representative for Midwest Laboratories in Omaha, Neb., says dry weather and poor yields are reminders of how much N can go unused by corn plants in a drought. The lesson to be learned is that you should test under all conditions as part of a long-term, successful N management plan. read more
Lower nitrogen losses with perennial biofuel crops
2013-01-10 18:45:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Perennial biofuel crops such as miscanthus, whose high yields have led them to be considered an eventual alternative to corn in producing ethanol, are now shown to have another beneficial characteristic -- the ability to reduce the escape of nitrogen in the environment. In a 4-year University of Illinois study that compared miscanthus, switchgrass, and mixed prairie species to typical corn-corn-soybean rotations, each of the perennial crops were highly efficient at reducing nitrogen losses, with...
