1. Nitrogen Loss In Corn Production Varies As A Function Of Topsoil DepthUnderstanding availability and loss potential of nitrogen for varying topsoil depths of poorly-drained claypan soil landscapes could help producers make improve decisions when managing crops for feed grain or bio-fuels. While it has been well documented that topsoil depth on these soils plays an important role in storing water for crop growth, it is not well known how this same soil... E. Allphin, N.R. Kitchen, K.A.

2. Development Of Batch Type Yield Monitor For Small FieldsAbstract The yield monitor is intended to give the user an accurate assessment of yield variations y within a field. A yield monitor can assist grain producers in many aspects of crop management. A yield monitor by itself can provide useful information and enhance on-farm research. Yield data can... M. Singh, A.

3. Water And Nitrogen Use Efficiency Of Corn And Switchgrass On Claypan Soil LandscapesClaypan soils cover a significant portion of Missouri and Illinois crop land, approximately 4 million ha. Claypan soils, characterized with a pronounced argilic horizon at or below the soil surface, can restrict nutrient availability and uptake, plant water storage, and water infiltration. These soil characteristics affect plant growth, with increasing depth of the topsoil above the claypan horizon having a strong positive correlation to grain crop production. In the case of low... A.
