Is Late Season N Fertilization Warranted for Irrigated Soybean in Western Nebraska?
November 2, 2018
On-farm research trials were conducted in three southwest Nebraska counties to study whether a late season N application during the pod setting and seed filling phases would increase soybean yields.
It’s Not Too Late to Plant Cereal Rye as a Nitrogen Catch Crop Before Soybean
October 24, 2018
In trials conducted at three research stations in eastern, northeastern and south-central Nebraska, researchers investigated rye productivity and its ability to scavenge N when grown as a cover crop between full-season corn and soybeans.

Q&A: Will Fertigation Now Endanger Corn Pollination?
July 12, 2018
After heavy rains in some areas created increased potential for nitrogen leaching, one farmer asks whether fertigating now will endanger pollination.
Flooding and Ponding in Corn
June 22, 2018
Ponding or flooding of fields affects corn differently at different stages, depending on duration of flooding and other factors. Growers should assess the potential for nitrogen loss and increase scouting for corn disease in these fields.
