2 Goals for Nutrient Managers Apply nutrients to maximize uptake and minimize losses Measure and respond to changes over time Minimize non-nutrient limitations to productivity
3 Short and Long-Term Management Short-Term Impact felt within a single season or between seasons Nitrogen application in corn In furrow phosphorus in wheat Starter fertilizer for corn Frost-seeding red clover Long-Term Impact felt years to decades in the future Background soil fertility (e.g. P & K, ph) Crop rotation Reduced traffic, tillage and use of cover crops
4 Soil as the Foundation Soil type determines: Yield potential Inherent fertility Pathways of nutrient loss Long-term soil management modifies these properties over time
5 Start with Soil Testing Basic fertility analysis should always be step #1 Cannot manage what you don t measure Begin with ph, move to macronutrients and then micronutrients OMAFRA accredited tests: Soil ph, buffer ph Olsen P K, Mg Zn and Mn Index
6 Start with a Soil Test * Olsen P K Mg ph Buffer ph Zn Index Mn Index
7 Fertilization Philosophies Sufficiency Feed the crop P & K applied for optimum return in year of application Can be used for both immobile and mobile nutrients Past research has supported it as most economical Build and Maintain Feed the soil Build to a critical level, then maintain it Cannot be used for mobile nutrients Requires investment during build phase
8 MERP (kg-p 2 O 5 /ha) Are OMAFRA Fertilizer Recs Still Relevant? Response of Corn to Phosphorus Fertilization 77 research trials ( ) Yes! However, yield levels have changed. Monitoring soil test levels is more important than ever. Band Broadcast OMAFRA Guidelines Soil Test P (ppm)

14 Sufficiency vs. Build and Maintain in Ontario Results to date are favourable for B & M Key considerations: Owned or rented land; length of rental Impact of soil health on crop response to P and K Non-nutrient limitations (e.g. compaction) Sustainable long-term soil management requires nutrient replacement Role of non-commercial nutrients?

17 Why 4R? -fish, hunt, trap and do various other water sports in the Western Basin of Lake Erie -drinking water -public perception -want to leave the lake in better shape for my kids -being a CCA I can have an impact October 9, 2011
18 Essex County and Why It s Important Essex County
19 Three Key Components of a Good 4R Nutrient Program Financial Environmental Social
20 Rate of application Principles of Build Maintenance and Drawdown Recommendation Program Maintenance Build Drawdown Soil test Level
21 Creating Management Zones Site specific soil sampling results Yield data Satellite imagery (in season and bare ground) Drone or aircraft imagery In field observations Combinations of the above
22 Management Zones Using 3 Years of Yield Data
23 Management Zones Using Aerial Imagery
24 Variable Rate Application of MAP P (Sodium Bicarb) levels ppm Average P 29 ppm Total VR MAP applied 363kg Total MAP applied if using average P 1100 kg 737 kg less MAP applied with a savings of $16/ac
25 Variable Rate Application Blend Based on Crop Removal 43 acres 61bu/ac average acres close to average ½ the acres above or below ave.
26 Varied Application Methods -use tailored rates based on actual crop needs -apply different products at different times -option to add other nutrients if needed -apply nutrients when soil conditions are optimal

36 Managing for Organic Matter
37 Protected Nitrogen
38 Non Commercial Nutrients Nutrients can be cheaper Get other nutrients for free Often good source of organic matter
39 Variable Rate Bio Pellet Application
40 Challenges with Non Commercial Products Lack of availability Limited control of timing of product arrival Limited storage life Truck load lots Trucking costs (can be high volume product) Application hurdles All nutrients need to be accounted for Possible contaminants
41 Cover Crops -capture nutrients -reduced wind and water erosion -increase soil OM -winter kill blends better on clays -simple is better
42 Yield Limiting Factors -poor planting conditions -poor drainage -compaction -poor soil structure -lack of moisture -poor variety/hybrid selection -pest pressure
43 Lessons From 4R Pilot Audit Process Document! Document how you do your nutrient recommendations(using generally accepted agronomic principles) Document soil test levels used for your recommendations(soil test used need to be less than 4 years old) Staff and grower training(staff and growers need to be trained in 4R practices and principles) Actual nutrient applied(as applied maps) Documented weather forecasts(daily forecasts) Use realistic yield goals(yield monitor data is helpful) Have field maps indicating surrounding areas(watercourses and waterbodies) Equipment calibration
44 Wrap-Up Many different strategies vary farm-to-farm Effective nutrient managers balance short and long-term decisions Ultimate goal: tighten up nutrient cycling on the farm and build inherent fertility over time
