Title
Phosphate Placement for Corn in Chisel and Moldboard Plowing Systems1
L. J. Cihacek; D. L. Mulvaney; R. A. Olson; et al. Agronomy Journal 1974. doi:10.2134/agronj1974.00021962006600050018x
Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Moldboard plowing gave somewhat higher corn yields than chisel plowing, irrespective of P rate or placement.
- Intervention effect The moisture conservation and erosion control advantages of chisel plowing offset the yield benefit of moldboard plowing.
- Intervention effect Deep placement of P gave greater crop feeding on the fertilizer than broadcast P prior to chiselling.
- Intervention effect Chisel placement of P minimized runoff loss of P on sediment from corn fields.
