Good management practices are essential if optimum fertilizer responses are to be realized. These practices include adequate irrigation, use of recommended varieties, selection of adapted soils, weed control, disease and insect control, proper seeding methods, and timely harvest. It is important that the soil be sampled and tested as a...

Over 50 fertilizer experiments on winter wheat have been conducted in Baker, Union, and Wallowa counties since 1957. Results of these experiments indicate that nitrogen and moisture are the main factors limiting wheat production in this area.
The successful production of hard wheat with acceptable protein is based, in part, on an effective nitrogen (N) management plan. This fact sheet discusses the principles of managing N
for hard wheat production and explains how to calculate an N application rate. The information contained in this fact
sheet is...
The dryland cereal producer in the lower Columbia Basin makes many critical soil and crop management decisions each season. These decisions are made more difficult because of the highly variable climatic conditions that exist in the region. A particularly difficult crop management decision facing the cereal grower is the determination...
This publication describes results of applied research on phosphorus fertilization of late-planted winter wheat in no-till fallow in the low-precipitation zone of Oregon and Washington.

Proper nitrogen (N) management and variety selection are important for profitable hard red winter (HRW) wheat production in the dryland growing regions of northeastern Oregon. In these dryland systems, N management for grain yield and grain protein concentration (GPC) is challenging due to climatic and year-to-year variation in production environments....
Good management practices are essential if optimum fertilizer responses are to be realized. These practices include use of recommended varieties, selection of adapted soils, weed control, disease and insect control, good seedbed preparation, proper seeding methods, and timely planting and
harvesting. Follow recommended soil sampling procedures to estimate fertilizer needs....
