1. The Application Of Fertilizer Using Management Zone (MZ) In Pampas Soils With Texture Variability Affects Residual Nitrate After HarvestThe maize yields are usually associated with soil texture heterogeneity in western Argentinean Pampas. In this area, the uniform fertilizer management (UM) increased the risk of nitrate leaching due to over-fertilizing but it could be minimized by using different management zones criteria (MZ). In a field experiment, the nitrates distribution in soil depth (0-1.80 m) at sowing and harvest times (residual Nitrate) and the maize... M. Rodriguez, G. Civeira, S. Urricariet, P. Muschietti, R.

2. Soil Moisture Variability on Golf Course Fairways Across the United States: an Opportunity for Water Conservation with Precision IrrigationFairways account for an average of 11.3 irrigated hectares on each of the 15,000+ golf courses in the US. Annual median water use per hectare on fairways is between ~2,800,000 and 14,000,000 liters, depending on the region. Conventional fairway irrigation relies on visual observation of the turfgrass, followed by secondary considerations of short-term weather forecasts, which oftentimes lead to “blanket” applications to the entire area. The concept of precision irrigation is a strategy... C. Straw, C. Bolton, J. Young, R. Hejl, J. Friell, E. Watkins |
