Nitrogen nutrition of seedling alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.)

Creator:: Eardly, Bertrand D.
Abstract:: Nitrogen fertilization of seedling legumes is a controversial practice intended to provide N to the plant during periods when seed N, soil N, and N₂ fixation may not meet plant requirements; eg. prenodulation, postharvest, or in the event of an inoculation failure. Field experiments were conducted in 3 consecutive years...
