Book Phosphorus Management Practices for Soybean Production in Manitoba

Download or read book Phosphorus Management Practices for Soybean Production in Manitoba written by Gustavo Bardella and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increase in soybean production in Manitoba has raised many questions about phosphorus management for achieving high yields of modern varieties. Soybean's tolerance to seed-placed fertilizer and response to added fertilizer P were evaluated in a 28 site-year study, and the yield response to soil test P concentrations was evaluated in seven site-years, in a second study. Plant stand reduction caused by fertilizer toxicity when applied with the seed was rare, but was most likely in soils with medium to coarse texture or when seeding equipment lightly disturbed the soil, or provided little seed bed utilization. Severe plant stand reduction decreased seed yield in two site-years. Seed yield increase to P fertilization was rarely observed, regardless of fertilizer P rate, P placement or soil test P. In only one site-year there was a significant effect of fertilizer rate, where 45 and 90 kg P2O5 ha-1 increased yield by approximately 15%, compared to the control. Regardless of soil test P, seed yield response to soil P fertility was never observed.

Book Phosphorus Beneficial Management Practices for Corn Production in Manitoba

Download or read book Phosphorus Beneficial Management Practices for Corn Production in Manitoba written by Magdalena Rogalsky and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two phosphorus (P) fertilization studies were conducted for two field seasons to assess the effects of starter fertilizer on early corn plant growth, maturity, grain yield and grain moisture at harvest. A crop rotation study evaluated corn response to spring side banded P and Zn fertilizer when corn followed canola versus soybean. Side banded fertilizer increased early season biomass by up to 110% compared to the unfertilized control, with the largest increases in corn following canola. Silking date was advanced by 3-7 days with application of starter fertilizers. At harvest, all starter fertilizer treatments reduced grain moisture by 2-3% in corn following canola only, and there was a 10% yield increase in grain yield with the high rate of MAP compared to the control, regardless of preceding crop. Second, a residue management study evaluated corn response to fall banded and spring side banded P fertilizer in strip-tillage and conventional tillage. At two site-years, spring side banded P treatments increased early season biomass by up to 103% compared to the unfertilized controls. Banded P treatments reduced days to silking by 2-3 d compared to the unfertilized control. Spring side band P treatments increased grain yield by an average of 467 kg ha-1 relative to the unfertilized control.

Book Evaluation of Long term Phosphorus Fertilizer Placement  Rate  and Source  and Research in the U S  Midwest

Download or read book Evaluation of Long term Phosphorus Fertilizer Placement Rate and Source and Research in the U S Midwest written by Cristie LeAnne Edwards and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The appropriate management for phosphorus (P) fertilizer can have significant agronomic, economic, as well as environmental impact. Studies in Kansas have evaluated different management systems to determine best management practices (BMP). The first component of this dissertation is a comprehensive review of tillage system and P fertilizer placement interaction. This review included studies completed in the U.S. Midwest. Results of this review showed greater corn yields with conventional tillage and broadcast applications when soil test P levels (STP) were below 20 mg P kg−1. However, soybean yield was highest in no-till systems with broadcast P fertilizer applications. The second component if this dissertation was a long-term study conducted in Kansas to evaluate the effect of P fertilizer placement on corn and soybean production. Results showed that under strip-tillage, P fertilizer placement significantly affected corn growth, but, seldom resulted in yield response difference among placement methods. Phosphorus application as starter fertilizer at planting showed the most consistent yield response. In addition to the agronomic aspect of this study, the third component of this dissertation consisted of an economic analysis using partial budgets calculated using both fixed and varying prices and costs to compare management practices. With decreased application costs associated with deep banding in strip-tillage system, net returns are greater than broadcast applications. The highest net responses were observed with starter P fertilizer applications. The fourth component of this dissertation included a study evaluating the effects of chelated fertilizer on nutrients, such as P, Fe, Mn, and Zn in soybean. Results from our study showed that both ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA)+P and hydroxyethyl ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (HEDTA)+P resulted in greater concentrations and uptake of Fe and lower Mn uptake in soybean. However, the application of glucoheptonate (GCH)+P had no negative effect on Mn uptake compared to EDTA+P and HEDTA+P. Across locations, EDTA+P and HEDTA+P showed higher yield than GCH+P. The use of long-term studies and comprehensive reviews can provide a unique perspective and better understanding of the most appropriate BMPs for P fertilizer management. Many agronomic and environmental implications of P fertilizer management and the interactions with tillage systems and soils may only become noticeable after multiple years or in a variety of conditions.

Book Recarbonizing global soils     A technical manual of recommended management practices

Download or read book Recarbonizing global soils A technical manual of recommended management practices written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2021-09-08 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last decades, soil organic carbon (SOC) attracted the attention of a much wider array of specialists beyond agriculture and soil science, as it was proven to be one of the most crucial components of the earth’s climate system, which has a great potential to be managed by humans. Soils as a carbon pool are one of the key factors in several Sustainable Development Goals, in particular Goal 15, “Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss” with the SOC stock being explicitly cited in Indicator 15.3.1. This technical manual is the first attempt to gather, in a standardized format, the existing data on the impacts of the main soil management practices on SOC content in a wide array of environments, including the advantages, drawbacks and constraints. This manual presents different sustainable soil management (SSM) practices at different scales and in different contexts, supported by case studies that have been shown with quantitative data to have a positive effect on SOC stocks and successful experiences of SOC sequestration in practical field applications. Volume 4 includes 51 case studies dealing with cropland, grassland, integrated systems and farming approaches.

Book Soil Fertility Management in Agroecosystems

Download or read book Soil Fertility Management in Agroecosystems written by Amitava Chatterjee and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-05-19 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Soil Fertility Management in Agroecosystems, Editors Amitava Chatterjee and David Clay provide a thoughtful survey of important concepts in soil fertility management. For the requirements of our future workforce, it is imperative that we evolve our understanding of soil fertility. Agronomists and soil scientists are increasingly challenged by extreme climatic conditions. Farmers are experimenting with integrating cover crops into rotations and reducing the use of chemical fertilizers. In other words, there is no such a thing as a simple fertilizer recommendation in today's agriculture. Topics covered include crop-specific nutrient management, program assessment, crop models for decision making, optimization of fertilizer use, cover crops, reducing nitrous oxide emissions, natural abundance techniques, tile-drained conditions, and soil biological fertility.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 32 (thesis year 1987) a total of 12,483 theses titles from 22 Canadian and 176 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 32 reports theses submitted in 1987, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.
