Title

McKay, John A. Digital Commons - USU (Utah State University) 2021. doi:10.26076/b71d-a136
Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Field corn yields were significantly higher in every tillage plot that received phosphorus than in plots with 0 kg phosphorus per hectare.
- Intervention effect Field corn yields tended to be higher with 11 + 34 kg/ha phosphorus side-dressed than with 45 kg/ha side-dressed, but not significantly.
- Intervention effect No-till field corn yielded higher than ripped or plowed plots in each tillage treatment.
- Intervention effect The yield difference between no-till and ripped field corn plots was not significant.
- Intervention effect No-till field corn yielded significantly higher than plowed plots.
- Intervention effect No-till with 11 + 34 kg/ha phosphorus averaged 3.1 Mg/ha higher silage yield than plowed plots with the same phosphorus.
- Intervention effect No-till with 11 + 34 kg/ha phosphorus averaged 2.5 Mg/ha higher silage yield than 45 kg/ha phosphorus side-dressed plots.
- Intervention effect No-till field corn took up significantly more phosphorus than ripped or plowed plots.
- Intervention effect Tillage treatments did not significantly change total nitrogen (TON) or protein in field corn.
- Observation Soil in the 0-30 cm layer averaged 5.9 ppm phosphorus, indicating a need for additional phosphorus.
- Observation Rye cover crop dry weight was only 598 kg/ha, due mainly to late planting.
