Your optimal N rate: Understanding its impact on yield, water quality, and the bottom line
Manage episode 440599158 series 3306419
In this episode of the Advancing Nitrogen Smart series, we discuss probably the most important topic for many farmers - rate. What makes both over-application and under-application of nitrogen counter-productive in terms of yield? How does a Maximum Return To Nitrogen (MRTN) rate approach differ from a yield-based approach? What are long-term environmental consequences of over-application, and how does this relate to a farmer's operation? What are some ways to address in-field variability when determining rate?
Guests:
- Brad Carlson, Extension educator (Mankato)
- Daniel Kaiser, Extension nutrient management specialist (St. Paul)
Additional resources:
- Maximum Return To Nitrogen (MRTN) rate calculator
- Are you overspending on fertilizer?
- Best practices for nitrogen management
- Nitrogen Smart (online course)
