Project Description
Project Objectives
As part of this field research and demonstration project, we propose to evaluate various promising N management methods and technologies by documenting the nitrate-N export and crop yield from several systems (Table 1). The specific objectives of this project are to:
- 1. Determine the effects of N fertilizer application and N fertilizer application timing on nitrate-N leaching losses along with potential impacts on crop yield.
2. Determine the effects of N fertilizer application and N fertilizer application timing on crop yield.
3. Disseminate project findings through peer-reviewed journal articles, Extension fact sheets, Extension presentations, and other outlets as appropriate; and provide needed scientific information for on-going review and adjustment of the Nutrient Reduction Strategy Science Assessment.
