1. Long-term Crop Rotation Diversity Effects on Soil C and NThe objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of nitrogen (N) fertilizer level and crop rotation diversity on soil organic carbon (SOC) and N stocks from a 34-yr study located in eastern Nebraska. Seven crop rotations (three continuous cropping systems; two 2-yr crop rotations, and two 4-yr crop rotations) and three N levels were compared. Soil samples were taken to a depth of 60-inches. Differences in SOC stocks were largely confined to the 0 to 3-inch depth with greater SOC (P =... M. Schmer, V. Jin, B. Wienhold, G. Varvel |
2. Combined Nitrogen with Magnesium or Zinc Effects on Sugarbeet Yield Sucrose Concentration, and Nutrient Uptake Under Conventional and No-till SystemsSugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is an important cash crop in the Lower Yellowstone River valley. Fertility, especially nitrogen (N) fertilizer, management is critical for sugar beet yield and sucrose concentration. While farmers are switching from a conventional tillage method to a no-till system for sugar beet cultivation, nitrogen (N) fertilizer application timing might need to be adjusted. Furthermore, micronutrients may enhance sugar beet yield and sucrose concentration. A two-year... C. Chen, M. Etesami, M. Abdelhamid |
