Preplant Nitrogen
      IPNI comparisons (Scott Murrell)

      Data from Iowa below for preplant N
Iowa State Fertilizer N Response, EONR

Optimum yield versus optimum N rate, at 77 Iowa sites, $3.75 corn, $.33 AA, C/C Rotation. 

“In a surprising finding, these (nitrogen) experiments showed no relationship between optimum corn yields and the amount of nitrogen needed to produce those yields.”

“The soil supplies unpredictable amounts of N” •“Plant available N varies widely from year to year”
