Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Nitrapyrin rates did not significantly affect sweet corn yield over two seasons.
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulfate raised total yield 65% relative to calcium nitrate in the wet 1976 summer.
- Intervention effect Total yield increased linearly from 6.1 to 9.8 MT/ha as ammonium sulfate nitrogen rate rose from 56 to 224 kg/ha.
- Intervention effect With calcium nitrate, total yield averaged 4.9 MT/ha and did not vary with nitrogen rate.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen source did not affect marketable yield in the drier 1977 spring.
- Intervention effect Split calcium nitrate applications increased yield relative to one application in the wetter season.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen application timing did not affect yield with either source in the dry season.
- Association Ammonium nitrogen absorption suppressed other cation absorption inconsistently across the study.
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulfate increased early plant dry weight relative to calcium nitrate in the wet season.
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulfate did not increase early plant dry weight relative to calcium nitrate in the dry season.
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulfate maintained higher soil nitrogen above 20 cm depth than calcium nitrate in the wet season.
