Rashid, M. T., Voroney, P. and Parkin, G. 2005. Predicting nitrogen fertilizer requirements for corn by chlorophyll meter under different N availability conditions. Can. J. Soil Sci. 85: 149–159. Nitrogen management strategies that enhance fertilizer use efficiency and maximize profitability in corn require a rapid and accurate method to determine the crop N needs of current hybrids. The object...

a trial study was set to assess the influence of the plant residue management in conjuction with application of different nitrogen sources on accumulation and translocation of wheat stem reserves, at the agricultural faculty of shahid chamran university of ahvaz during 2011-2012. the experimental design was split plot at randomized completed block design arrangement. the main plot were differen...

in order to investigate the effects of nitrogen fertilizer on yield and yield component of potato, (solanum tuberosum l.) and researching for direct and indirect effects of some important agronomic traits, an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, during 2008. chlorop...

A research project was conducted to evaluate the impact of alternative citrus nitrogen and water management practices on groundwater nitrate concentrations beneath the vulnerable sandy soils in the ridge citrus region of Central Florida. Fifteen months of baseline data indicated that groundwater nitrate-nitrogen concentrations were above the Environmental Protection Agency’s Maximum Contaminant...

Crop management strategies that improve Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE) increase profits while reducing the detrimental effects on the environment associated with fertilizer nitrogen (N) loss. Effective N management should include several critical factors that are very interrelated. A study was conducted at the Panhandle Research and Extension Center, Goodwell, OK to evaluate the effects of multi...

Nitrogen management practices have an effect on crop yields but they can also have a negative impact on the environment. Practices such as banding fertilizer and/or split-applying total nitrogen needs per acre offer a more efficient use of nitrogen by significantly reducing nitrate leaching potential. Heavy rains occurring when plants are small and nitrogen demands are low can also increase nit...

in order to evaluation of relation between weed dynamic and utilization of nitrogen in weed as influence of integrated fertilizer management in different weed densities, a field experiment was carried out in experimental farm of agricultural faculty of shahid chamran university of ahvaz at 2011-2012 growing season. experimental design was based on a split-plot with three replications .main plot...

in order to effects of fertilizer source and intercropping ratios on macronutrients concentration and uptake of fenugreek and black cumin, a factorial experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications at shahrekord university research farm in 2013. sole cropping of fenugreek (f) and sole cropping of black cumin (b) and three intercropping ratios (f:b 2:1, f:b ...

The watersheds of the Mississippi are some of the most intensively managed agricultural basins in the world. As such, they receive high loadings of nitrogen and export a large amount of nitrate to the drainage networks of the Mississippi River basin and coastal ocean. We find a positive correlation between fertilizer input and stream export of nitrogen. According to the correlation, 34% of appl...
