Soil nitrate testing supports nitrogen management in irrigated annual crops
Soil nitrate (NO3) tests are an integral part of nutrient management in annual crops. They help growers make field-specific nitrogen (N) fertilization decisions, use N more efficiently and, if necessary, comply with California’s Irrigated Lands Regulatory Program, which requires an N management plan and an estimate of soil NO3 from most growers. As NO3 is easily leached into deeper soil layers ...
متن کاملUsing Nitrate-N Petiole Sap-Testing for Better Nitrogen Management in Vegetable Crops
Vegetables have a relatively high nitrogen requirement and at times growers apply too much fertilizer-N that contributes to ground and surface water pollution. Fertilization can be made more efficient by plant analysis. Plant tissue (petiole) nitrate testing is a way of monitoring the nitrogen condition of the crop during the growing season. This is an especially useful method as the petiole is...
متن کاملSuction Cup Samplers for Estimating Nitrate-Nitrogen in Soil Water in Irrigated Sugarbeet Production
Efforts have increased to measure nitrate losses from farmland under different management practices due to environmental and public concerns over levels of nitratenitrogen (NO3-N) in surface and ground waters. This study evaluated the effect of conventional tillage (CT) and strip tillage (ST) practices and three N application rates on NO3-N concentrations in soil water at a 76 cm depth under ir...
متن کاملRelative importance of soil and climate variability for 4 nitrogen management in irrigated wheat
10 11 Abstract 12 13 Increased efficiency of nitrogen (N) fertilizer use may be achieved with management practices that account for spatial 14 variability in soil properties and temporal variability in climate. In this study, we develop a N management decision model for an 15 irrigated wheat system that incorporates hypothetical diagnostics of soil N and growing season climate. The model is the...
متن کاملDepth of nitrogen fertiliser placement affects nitrogen accumulation, translocation and nitrate-nitrogen content in soil of rainfed wheat
A field experiment was conducted to examine the effects of different depths ofnitrogen (N) fertiliser placements on N accumulation, remobilisation and NO3−-Ncontent in soil of rainfed wheat. Nitrogen was applied on the surface (D1) and inthe 10 cm (D2), 20 cm (D3) and 30 cm (D4) soil layers from 2010 to 2012.Compared with D1 and D2, D3 and D4 treatments obtained significant higher Ndistribution...
