2 Soil Nitrate Production vs. Crop Nitrate Uptake Rate of soil nitrate production from native soil organic matter Rate of corn or soybean nitrate uptake The majority of nitrate used by corn and soybean comes from soil nitrate production. Corn gets the difference from fertilizer while soybean gets the difference from legume fixation of atmospheric nitrogen. March February In the shaded areas, the soil produces nitrate, but there is no crop to use it. As a result, some nitrate is lost to waterways.

12 Soil Nitrate Production vs. Crop Nitrate Uptake Addition of a Cover Crop Rate of soil nitrate production from native soil organic matter Rate of corn or soybean nitrate uptake Cover crops can use nitrate when corn and beans are not growing, thus reducing the asynchrony between soil nitrate production and crop nitrate uptake. Cover crop nitrate use Cover crop nitrate use March February In the shaded areas, the soil produces nitrate, but there is no crop to use it. As a result, some nitrate is lost to waterways.

63 Justification Eagle et al. (2015) noted that only one study reported simultaneous nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions and NO 3 leaching losses, along with crop yield information. (4R Research Funded Project) In addition, we are aware of no studies explicitly aimed at understanding the interactions between 4R management strategies, soil health, drainage water quality, and nitrous oxide emissions
64 Objectives Our objective is to: Quantify the impact of 4R Nutrient Stewardship on crop yield, soil health, nutrient use efficiencies, nutrient losses with leaching, and gaseous nitrogen losses across a network of coordinated studies in the major corn producing area of North America.
