1. In-furrow Placement of Dry Urea Prodcuts with Winter WheatPrevious research has shown that the application of some nitrogen fertilizer prior to or at the time of wheat seeding can positively affect the initiation of fall tillers and thus yield potential. However, there are logistical challenges in placing that nitrogen in no-till production systems. Traditionally, the placement of urea-based fertilizers in-furrow with wheat seed has not been recommended. The objectives of this project were to evaluate stand reduction and associ... L. Haag, A.

2. Nitrogen Managememt in Dryland Winter Wheat to Improve Grain Yield and ProteinMaximizing the yield along with adequate protein content in winter wheat is an emerging challenge for dryland wheat producers. Proper nitrogen (N) management with optimization of fertilizer application rate and timing might be a potential strategy to improve grain yield and protein. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of different N rates and application timing on grain yield and protein content of hard red winter wheat in Nebraska. Field study was carried out at four locat... D. Ghimire, B. Maharjan |
3. N Mineralization Dynamics in No-till Crop Residues in the Northern PlainsAlthough many studies have been conducted on no-till cropping systems, little is yet known about the dynamics of N mineralization from accumulated crop residues as it relates to providing N to subsequent crops. We conducted incubation studies using individual crop residues placed on the surface of soil columns in leaching tubes and incubating the tubes for approximately 12 weeks (simulated growing season) with periodic leaching. This was repeated 5 times with a freezing period (win... L. Cihacek, R. Alghamdi |
4. Experiences in the Canadian Prairies with Enhanced Efficiency N Fertilizers for Winter and Spring Wheat Production SystemsThis presentation summarizes several studies all designed to address knowledge gaps around enhanced efficiency urea fertilizer (EEF) efficacy for nitrogen (N) management in western Canadian winter and spring wheat production systems. Polymer-coated urea was first studied to determine how handling effects can alter the coating integrity of environmentally smart nitrogen (ESN®). While N release rates increased from retail or farm-handling such as trans... B. Beres |
