Creator:: Gale, Eric S.
Abstract:: In order to properly utilize organic amendments as nitrogen sources, reliable methods to estimate plant-available nitrogen (PAN) are needed. The objectives of this study were to (1) evaluate the use of crop and soil responses in fertilizer N equivalence (FNE) calculations, (2) examine the relationships between the C/N ratio, total...
