Abstract

This study is an extension of a 20-year manure management study evaluating the impact of spring manure fertilization on soil health, water quality, and crop yields. Phase 3 of the study began with poultry manure application in fall 2017, with the first year of yield and water quality data collected in 2018, and the final year collected in 2020. This 3-year study was conducted on research plots located at the ISU Ag Engineering/Agronomy Research Farm, Boone, Iowa.
