Nebraska Growers Help Estimate Field Variability in Soybean Protein and Oil Content
June 14, 2023
First-year results of a cooperative, multi-state research project aimed at helping growers achieve soybean yields with higher protein and oil content.
Fertilizer-nitrogen Injury to Corn
May 17, 2023
Nebraska Extension recommendations on minimizing crop injury from anhydrous ammonia applications.
On-Farm Research Encourages Lifelong Learning that Helps Your Farm
April 13, 2023
Studies are getting underway for the 2023 growing season, but there's still time and availability for Nebraska farmers who are interested in conducting on-farm research this year.
Understanding Soil Residual Nitrogen and its Dollar Value for Next Crop
March 14, 2023
For producers planning corn-on-corn this growing season, there may be a substantial opportunity to reduce nitrogen fertilizer applications, as drought and reduced yields likely left higher-than-normal residual N in many fields.
Husker Faculty will Discuss Digital Ag at Commodity Classic
March 2, 2023
Two university faculty members will highlight their research on remote sensing in nitrogen fertilizer management and share insights on what the data-driven “farm of the future” will look like.
Farmer Focus: Wheat Producer Explores NinjaAg’s Performance in Nitrogen Management
October 12, 2022
Results of Nebraska farmer Monte Murkle's on-farm research study to determine whether a variable rate nitrogen prescription is an improvement to his traditional flat-rate nitrogen management.
Another Dry Year: What to Know About Leftover Nitrogen in Soil Following Dry Conditions
September 28, 2022
In irrigated or dryland areas with normal production, management practices may continue as normal, but for dryland areas with drastic yield reductions, there is potential for nitrogen fertilizer adjustment for the 2023 crop.
Farmer Focus: Producer Engages in On-Farm Research Project to Cut Input Costs
July 14, 2022
Results of one Nebraska grower's on-farm research on reducing nitrogen inputs by using a Trimble GreenSeeker crop sensor and Corteva's Granular Insights decision support system.
