Forecast and Assessment of Cropping Systems in South Central Iowa

Authors: , ,

Abstract

In 2018, the Forecast and Assessment of Cropping sysTemS (FACTS) project continued with the objective of forecasting inseason soil water-nitrogen dynamics, inseason plant growth, and end-of-season grain yields. This concept was initiated to help farmers and agronomists make in-season management decisions, plus review the past growing season to see what management practices could have been changed to improve grain yields and net profits, but also reduce nitrogen loss.
