Abstract

This experiment was established in 1963 to determine if 1) acidification of soil from nitrogen (N) fertilizer could be controlled in continuous corn with annual lime applications, 2) the amounts of phosphorus(P) and potassium (K) fertilizer needed to maintain fertility, and 3) the nutrient balances that would develop and their effects on corn production. The study used 25 treatments in an incomplete factorial design where all treatments were replicated two times.
