Computer simulation models provide insight into ammonia loss processes and the sensitivity of ammonia loss predictions to environmental and management variables.
As an example of how a simple computer simulation model can inform the Extension guideline development process, the ALFAM (Ammonia Volatilization from Field-Applied Animal Slurry) model was used to...
Organic vegetable growers rely on legume cover crops as an economical source of plant-available N. This research evaluated N contributions to summer vegetable crops by cover crops (CC) residues by monitoring soil nitrate (NO3-N) concentrations during the summer crop growing season. Replicated field plots were established with three CC mixes:...

During the past 50 years, plantation Christmas tree production has grown in acreage and sophistication. Nitrogen applications with a tuna can have been replaced by precise, mechanized application of a wide array of nutrients and lime.
Current nutrient management programs must focus on three concepts for success.
