Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Nitrogen applied at seeding substantially increased grain yield.
- Intervention effect The first 20 to 40 kg N/ha at seeding decreased grain protein.
- Intervention effect At 60 or more kg N/ha at seeding, grain protein exceeded the unfertilized check.
- Intervention effect Late nitrogen topdressing of unfertilized crops increased protein only.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen topdressing of previously fertilized crops did not change grain yield.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen topdressing of previously fertilized crops slightly increased grain protein.
- Intervention effect Soil applied nitrogen topdressings tended to be less effective than foliar application.
- Observation Foliar UAN increased protein but could cause leaf burn and reduce yield and protein.
