Seasonal and Rotational Influences on Corn Nitrogen Requirements, Swine Farm

---

Abstract

This project is designed to study the nitrogen (N) fertilization needs in continuous corn and corn rotated with soybean as influenced by location and climate. Multiple rates of fertilizer N are spring applied, with the intent to measure yield response to N within each rotation on a yearly basis, for multiple years, at multiple sites across Iowa. This will allow the determination of N requirements for each rotation practice, differences that exist between the two rotations, responses to applied N across different soils and climatic conditions, and evaluation of tools used to adjust N application.
