Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Irrigation regime did not affect maize silage or grain yield.
- Intervention effect Unfertilized control maize silage yield was significantly below all fertilized treatments.
- Intervention effect Maize grain yield was similar across nitrogen application methods.
- Intervention effect Irrigation regime did not affect maize crop nitrogen concentration.
- Intervention effect Fertilizer had a large effect on nitrogen concentration of maize silage, grain and residues.
- Intervention effect Maize plant nitrogen concentration at both harvests was lowest in control plots.
- Intervention effect Maize plant nitrogen concentration at both harvests was highest with all fertilizer applied at planting.
- Mechanism The authors interpreted high nitrogen uptake without yield gain as probable luxury uptake.
- Intervention effect Subsequent winter oat cover crop yield was significantly higher after fertilization than control.
