1 OREGON STATE COLLEGE Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Extension Service March 1955 S-36-Section U PROGRESS REPORT OF FERTILIZER RESEARCH IN OREGON FOR 1954 Central Oregon - Irrigated Grain Fertility Experiments ) A series of experiments were established to measure responses from nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur fertilizers on irrigated grains in Central Oregon. Trials were established following grain, potatoes, and legumes. Each plot was 9 x 75 feet. All treatments were repeated 3 times in a randomized block design. The fertilizer was applied before seeding with a machine designed to place a measured amount of fertilizer approximately three inches in the soil in bands 102 inches apart. The plots were harvested with a redesigned Allis- Chalmers combine. The machine was self-propelled and cut a )40-inch swath through each plot. The treatments were varied somewhat by location. On the locations following grain or legumes, four nitrogen levels 30, 60, 90, and 120 pounds of N; two levels of phosphate 40 and 80 pounds of P 205were applied, Twenty pounds of sulfur was applied in two additional treatments containing N and P at moderate rates. On locations following potatoes, the 120 lb/a of nitrogen and the 80 lb/a rate of phosphate were omitted. Unless otherwise noted, the sources of the fertilizers were as follows: N - Ammonium nitrate 332 per cent P - Treble superphosphate L8 per cent S 2 - ) Gypsum 18 per cent Report prepared by: M. Johnson, Superintendent, Central Oregon Experimental Area, and T. L. Jackson, Extension Soils Specialist, OSC, COOPERATORS: 1. Extension Service, OSC - County agents in Central Oregon counties have selected the farmer cooperators and assisted with establishing and harvesting the fertilizer trials carried out in their respective counties. 2. Agricultural Experiment Station, OSC - Project 73, H. B. Cheney, Department of Soils, project leader. Project 173, L. A. Alban, Department of Soils, project leader. 3. Farmer Cooperators - All of the farmers who have cooperated in this work have been very generous in providing space in their fields and the use of tractors and other equipment for establishing and harvesting the trials. This cooperation is sincerely appreciated. L. Commercial Companies - Fertilizer materials were donated by Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company.
2 -2- The Rodman-Bowman trial was established prior to the above locations. The trial was of the same design but the plot size was 6 x 20 feet, the fertilizers hand applied, and yield estimates were taken from three quadrats harvested from each plot. In this trial, fall and spring applications of ammonium sulfate were compared with comparable treatments of ammonium nitrate. Additional treatments of phosphate and sulfur were applied alone and in combination with nitrogen. As would be expected. there was considerable variation in the yields between locations. In general, the following results were obtained in Central Oregon during No responses to sulfur fertilization were obtained. A significant phosphate response was obtained at the Gregg location only. The soil phosphate levels on this location were between pounds of P per acre. The location had been in alfalfa for several years and bluegrass and quackgrass had come into the stand. Nitrogen alone increased the yield by 10 bushels per acre with little variation between N levels. At 40 pounds of P 205 yields increased another 10 bushels. An additional /40 pounds of P205 increased yield another 5 bushels and allowed differentiation between the N levels. The optimum fertilization level on this location appeared to be 60 pounds of N plus 80 pounds of P205. Nitrogen responses varied with cropping history: Where grain followed a clean vigorous legume stand no responses to nitrogen were obtained. Where grain followed potatoes the optimum level appeared to be 60 pounds of nitrogen. At the Rodman-Bowman location, the optimum level of nitrogen was 80 pounds. Where grain.followedygrairrthe optimum level appeared to be between 60 and 90 pounds of nitrogen. Apparently by chance, the grain following grain locations were seriously affected by outside factors. On one location root rot occurred and on the other two locations frost damage occurred. One of the frosted locations was reseeded and the other was not. On the location not reseeded, (Pearl Weigand) 90 pounds of N resulted in a yield four times as large as the 30 pound rate. At the reseeded location, (Jesse Windham) 60 pounds of N was the optimum level. The Rodman-Bowman location indicated that there were no consistant differences between ammonium sulfate and ammonium nitrate as a source of N and no differences between fall and spring application of the fertilizers. Soil Samples Soil samples were taken before the fertilizers were applied. Composite samples were taken from two depths (0 to 8 inches and 8 to 16 inches) on each replication. The soil analyses shown are the average values for each location. The Soil Testing Laboratory used the following method in making these analyses: Soil ph - Beckman ph meter on a soil paste Phosphorus - Sodium bicarbonate Potassium Calcium - Extracted with 1 normal ammonium acetate buffered at ph 7,0 Yagnesium
