- Association Stand emergence varied by year with moisture conditions.
- Intervention effect Side-banded nitrogen sometimes reduced flax stand density, most with urea and UAN.
- Intervention effect High urea rates may have restricted seed yield in some years.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen frequently increased leaf and stem pasmo.
- Observation Fertilizer source and placement had variable effects on pasmo.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen raised seed yield except at one site with high soil nitrogen.
- Intervention effect When sources differed, urea generally yielded less than other nitrogen sources.
- Association Seed protein concentration rose with increasing nitrogen.
