2 How much nitrogen does a cotton crop need for optimal growth and yield? How much fertilizer nitrogen does a cotton crop need for optimal growth and yield??

7 Sources of Nitrogen Free Fertilizer N
8 Free Sources of Nitrogen Native soil N (Organic matter, Clay-fixed, N fixation by algae) Residual N ( From fertilizer N applied in last 3 years) Vegetation mineralization Added N from all other sources
9 Not free sources Fertilizer N 2/9/9 Ammonium nitrate 67 to 92 cents/lb UAN cents/lb UAN 3 + S 61 to 71 cents/lb Urea to 46 cents/lb Anhydrous 2 cents/lb Legume N 4 to 6 cents/lb
10 Fertilizer N Costs Cost of fertilizer N per acre* $36 to $57 Cost of Fertilizer N as percentage of total input costs -- 6 to 1% Cost of Fertilizer N per pound of lint $.36 to $.57 * silt loam soils
11 Strategies to minimize fertilizer N costs? Applying split applications of soil- applied or foliar-applied applied N? Using in-season monitoring of crop N status -- sensing of leaf/crop greenness? Using site specific applications based on field variability?
12 Strategies to minimize fertilizer N costs? Delaying fertilizer application to wait for price to decrease? Use the minimal rates needed based on research and experience.
13 For most alluvial and loess silt loam soils, a For most alluvial and loess silt loam soils, a fertilizer N rate of 75-8 lb/a is optimum for yield and management of cotton.

30 Summary for Fertilizer N N formulation has little or no effect on cotton lint yield response. The optimal N rate for soil-applied N is 75 lb/acre on the silt loam soils and 9 to 1 lb/acre on the silty clays and clays. Cost of fertilizer N varies with form - 45 to 71 cents per pound.
31 Summary for Fertilizer N Foliar-applied applied N effects are small and inconsistent pointed out yesterday by Dr. Phillips. Split N applications are seldom economic, whether soil or foliar applied. The majority of the N used by a cotton crop is free.

36 Why plant legume crops for N? Relative cost of other N sources Inorganic fertilizers Organic (poultry litter, gin trash, composts) Soil organic matter increase Soil quality improvement Winter ground cover for BMPs Intangibles (improved soil tilth & biology
37 Why not plant legume crops for N? Relative cost of other N sources Uncertainty of production Time management fall planting; possible delay with spring planting preparation and planting itself.

41 Summary for Legume N Winter legumes biomass contain from 1 to 15 lb N/acre in early spring. Up to 8 % of this N can be available for the following summer crop. Based on past research, the best overall legume is hairy vetch followed by several of the clover species and by winter peas. Cotton planted in hairy vetch residue Cotton planted in Austrian winter pea residue
42 Summary for Legume N Legumes should be chosen for early growth, total N and tolerance to cold. The largest impediment to effective use of winter cover crops for N is the conflict with maximum N fixation time (early spring) and planting of the following summer crop. Cotton planted in hairy vetch residue Cotton planted in Austrian winter pea residue
