1 Soil Nitrogen and Carbon Management Project John E. Sawyer Mahdi Al-Kaisi Daniel Barker Marc Kruse John Lundvall Department of Agronomy Iowa State University
2 Soil Nitrogen and Carbon Management Project 43 Sites
3 Project Objectives Demotrate potential of a new soil N test in Iowa corn production Demotrate corn N fertilization needs in corn following soybean Demotrate impact of N fertilization on short-term soil N - C change and CO 2 release
4 Project Methods 43 Sites on Producer Fields Across Iowa Corn-Soybean Rotation, with First-Year of N Rate Application 0 to 200 lb N/acre in 40 lb N Increments Determine Economic Optimum N Rate, N Fertilizer Respoe, Relative Yield Monitor Corn N Status Leaf Greenness Multiple Soil Sampling by Depth and Time Determine Soil N, C, and Illinois N Soil Test Monitor CO 2 Emission Across Multiple Seaso
5 Many Procedures Evaluated for Assessing Plant-Available N Indirect (crop rotation) Plant vegetation Yield, total N uptake, uptake with no applied N, concentration, plant seing Total soil N analysis Inorganic N forms Laboratory microbial incubation Chemical extraction Water, strong acids or bases, neutral salts Analyze extract for C, total N, distillable NH 3, ultraviolet adsorption
6 Hydrolyzable Amino Sugar-N Basis for Illinois Soil N Test Mason-jar diffusion of amino sugar-n fraction of soil {Mulvaney and Khan, SSAJ 65: } {Mulvaney et al., SSAJ 65: } Improved determination of amino sugar-n fraction Indicated Pool of readily mineralizable organic-n Indicated corn respoiveness to N fertilization Critical level ppm (12-inch depth) Potential for preplant soil sampling
7 Illinois Soil N Test Procedure Khan, Mulvaney and Hoeft (2001) Weigh a 1-g sample of air dried soil (ground < 2 mm) into a Mason jar Add 10 ml 2 M NaOH and swirl gently Seal jar with lid assembly containing petri dish with 5 ml boric acid-indicator solution Heat on hot-plate for 5-hr at C Titrate boric acid solution to endpoint with standardized 0.01 M H 2 SO 4 Critical level ppm (12-inch depth)
8 Soil Test Results Same for Fall and Spring Samples 0-6 and 0-12 Inch Depth Fall versus Spring Soil Sampling Illinois N Soil Test Values Fall (ppm) Inch, Inch, Inch, Inch, Inch, Inch, Spring (ppm)
9 Soil Test Results Not Related to N Respoe N-Fertilizer Respoe (%) Relatiohip Between the Illinois N Soil Test (Spring 0-12 Inch Depth Samples) and Corn N Respoe Illinois N Soil Test (ppm)
10 Soil Test Results Not Related to Relative Yield Relatiohip Between the Illinois N Soil Test (Spring 0-12 Inch Depth Samples) and Relative Corn Yield Relative Corn Yield (No N Control) Illinois N Soil Test (ppm)
11 Soil Test Results Not Related to Needed N Rate Economic N Rate (lb N/acre) Relatiohip Between the Illinois N Soil Test (Spring 0-12 Inch Depth Samples) and Economic N Rate (10:1 Corn:N ratio) Illinois N Soil Test (ppm)
12 Soil Test Results Related to Total Soil N Illinois N Soil Test and Total Soil N (Spring or Fall 0-12 Inch Depth Samples) Total Soil N (ppm) Total Soil N = *INST, R 2 = 0.86*** Illinois N Soil Test (ppm)
13 No-N (Control) Corn Yield Reflected N Respoe 100 Relatiohip Between Control (No-N) Corn Yield and Yield Respoe to Economic Optimum N 43 S-C sites N Fertilizer Respoe, % Control (no-n) Yield, bu/acre
14 High Productivity Did Not Require High N Input Economic N Rate, lb N/acre Economic Optimum N Rate (10:1 Corn:N Price Ratio) Ranked by Site Maximum Fertilized Yield Maximum Yield, bu/acre
15 Economic Optimum N Rate Varied Between Season Economic Optimum N Rate at Repeat Sites Year Site Difference lb N/acre Boone-S Louisa Tama Floyd Economic optimum N rate calculated at 10:1 corn:n price ratio.
16 Corn Leaf Greenness Indicated N Need Relative R1 Stage Ear Leaf Chlorophyll Meter Reading vs. Applied N Rate Difference from Economic N Respoe Relative Chlorophyll Meter Reading Difference in Average N Rate, lb N/acre 2002 N/C Sites 2001 N/C Sites LTN Sites 2003 N/C Sites
17 Corn Leaf Greenness Similar at V15 and R1 Relative Leaf Chlorophyll Meter Reading vs. Applied N Rate Difference from Economic N Respoe Relative Chlorophyll Meter Reading Difference in Average N Rate, lb N/acre C-S_V8 C-S_V15 C-S_R1 C-S_R3
18 Carbon Dioxide Emission Rate Not Affected by Prior N App., Boone-S Site 2002 Soybean Crop lbs / A Average CO2 Emission Rate (lbs / A /day) lbs / A 160 lbs / A 200 lbs / A Days After Planting
19 Carbon Dioxide Emission Rate Higher With No Applied N, Boone-S Site 2003 Corn Crop lbs / A Average CO2 Emission Rate (lbs / A / day) s 0.44 s 0.33 s 0.44 s 80 lbs / A 160 lbs / A 200 lbs / A Days After Planting

21 Cumulative Carbon Dioxide Emission Not Affected by N Rate, Boone-S Site 2003 Corn Cumulative CO2 Emissio Rate (lbs / A) lbs / A 80 lbs / A 160 lbs / A 200 lbs / A Days After Planting
22 Soybean Residue C and N Input to Soil Boone-S Site Fall 2002 N rate Dry Matter Total C Total N C:N Ratio lb/acre a 2697 a 69 a 39 : a 2608 a 69 a 38 : a 2822 a 82 a 34 : a 3179 a 90 a 35 : 1 *Mea with the same letters are not significantly different at Pr 0.05.
23 Summary Illinois N Soil Test was not predictive of corn respoe to applied N or economic optimum N rate, and is not recommended for adjusting corn N fertilization on Iowa soils Corn respoe to applied N varied across sites Economic optimum N rate was not coistent between years at repeat sites
24 Summary Corn yield with no applied N (control) generally reflected site respoiveness to applied N Leaf greenness indicated corn N need Large amounts of CO 2 were released and approximated residue carbon input
25 Thank you to the many cooperators and individuals who helped make the project a success.
