Considerations for Use of Enhanced Efficiency Nitrogen Fertilizers

Many formulations of urea fertilizers or chemicals to treat urea are on the market today. Only a few are effective at protecting the fertilizer from quickly losing N.

Fertilizing Alsike Clover, Birdsfoot Trefoil, Red Clover and Sweetclover in North Dakota

Fertilization of clovers is different from alfalfa, so the recommendations requirements need to be different from those of alfalfa.

Fertilizing Canola and Mustard

This circular provides direction for canola/mustard growers on fertilizer use and recommendations in North Dakota.

Fertilizing Hard Red Spring Wheat and Durum

Nitrogen management is a key to successful wheat production. Recommendations include consideration of wheat yield and protein response to added N within three major state agri-climatology zones, and the use of wheat price and N cost in…

Fertilizing Malting and Feed Barley

Fertilizing Pinto, Navy and Other Dry Edible Bean

Dry beans are unique in crop fertilizer needs. This circular directs growers to an appropriate strategy for fertilizer efficiency and high yielding, high quality dry bean harvests.

Fertilizing Potato in North Dakota

The previous edition provided a nutrient rate to potato regardless of varietal efficiency nad harvest date. This edition provides this updated information and also recommendation potassium based in part on soil clay chemistry.

Fertilizing Sugarbeet in North Dakota

Sugarbeet growers in this region are paid based on the tons of recoverable sucrose that is extracted from their crop. Therefore, sugarbeet profitability depends on producing a high-tonnage crop that is high in sucrose percentage.

Fertilizing Winter Wheat

Winter wheat fertilization recommendations in North Dakota previously were similar to spring wheat and durum. As a larger research base was developed for spring wheat and durum, separating the winter wheat from other wheat became necessary…

Integrated Systems Molecular Analysis of Soil Nitrogen Cycling Genes

Integrating crop and beef cattle systems provides a unique opportunity to not only study seasonal nitrogen cycling, microbial active carbon, different ratios of organic and inorganic C and N, but to also investigate soil nitrogen cycling…

Limitations of the Sulfate-sulfur Soil Test as a Predictor of Sulfur Response

In the past dozen years, sulfur deficiency in the north central region has become common in historically unaffected soils. The reasons include higher crop yield and the associated increased demand for soil sulfur, but also the clean air as…
