From the author: Early in the growing season, an adequate level of mineralized soil N is essential in order to obtain optimum corn (Zea mays L.) growth and productivity. In Michigan, soil N sufficiency is often determined using the pre-sidedress nitrate test (PSNT) at stage V-6 of corn growth. The Living Field Laboratory (LFL) is a long-term cropping systems experiment established in 1993 at Hickory Corners, MI. The design is a split-block within a split-plot. Main plots are commercial fertilizer vs. dairy manure compost as a nutrient source. Sub-plots are the entry points in a corn-corn-soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]-wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) rotation, and continuous corn. These are further split so that each entry point is grown with or without an overseeded cover crop. By 1995, the third year of the rotation, rotation as well as cover crop influenced the rate of N mineralization at PSNT sampling. Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) residue following wheat provided both the earliest and highest amount of mineralization, and the highest yield for a succeeding corn crop.

From the author: The objective was to evaluate how cover crops affect profit-maximizing nitrogen rates, corn yields, and net revenues for no tillage corn production in West Tennessee. Yield data for various applied nitrogen rates during 1986 through 1995 were used to estimate corn yield response functions for hairy vetch, crimson clover, winter wheat, and no cover alternatives. Profit-maximizing nitrogen rates, yields, costs of production, and net revenues were then calculated. The vetch cover provided the highest profit-maximizing corn yields and net revenues and the lowest profit-maximizing applied nitrogen rates. The opposite was true for wheat. Clover provided lower net revenues than the no cover alternative.

Description:
A wide range of tillage systems have been used by producers in the Corn-Belt in the United States during the past decade due to their economic and environmental benefits. However, changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) and nitrogen (SON) and crop responses to these tillage systems are not well documented in a corn-soybean rotation. Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of different tillage systems on SOC and SON, residue C and N inputs, and corn and soybean yields across Iowa. The first experiment consisted of no-tillage (NT) and chisel plow (CP) treatments, established in 1994 in Clarion-Nicollet-Webster (CNW), Galva-Primghar-Sac (GPS), Kenyon-Floyd-Clyde (KFC), Marshall (M), and Otley-Mahaska-Taintor (OMT) soil associations. The second experiment consisted of NT, strip-tillage (ST), CP, deep rip (DR), and moldboard plow (MP) treatments, established in 1998 in the CNW soil association. Both corn and soybean yields of NT were statistically comparable to those of CP treatment for each soil association in a corn-soybean rotation during the 7 years of tillage practices. The NT, ST, CP, and DR treatments produced similar corn and soybean yields as MP treatment in a corn-soybean rotation during the 3 years of tillage implementation of the second experiment. Significant increases in SOC of 17.3, 19.5, 6.1, and 19.3% with NT over CP treatment were observed at the top 15-cm soil depth in CNW, KFC, M, and OMT soil associations, respectively, except for the GPS soil association in a corn-soybean rotation at the end of 7 years. The NT and ST resulted in significant increases in SOC of 14.7 and 11.4%, respectively, compared with MP treatment after 3 years. Changes in SON due to tillage were similar to those observed with SOC in both experiments. The increases in SOC and SON in NT treatment were not attributed to the vertical stratification of organic C and N in the soil profile or annual C and N inputs from crop residue, but most likely due to the decrease in soil organic matter mineralization in wet and cold soil conditions. It was concluded that NT and ST are superior to CP and MP in increasing SOC and SON in the top 15cm in the short-term. The adoption of NT or CP can be an effective strategy in increasing SOC and SON in the Corn-Belt soils without significant adverse impact on corn and soybean yields in a corn-soybean rotation. ...
