Effect of N fertilizer rate and soil pH on N efficiency in corn

Abstract: Nitrogen (N) efficiency components and N accumulation parameters were determined for seven commercially available corn (Zea mays L.) hybrids grown on a Cecil sandy loam soil (Typic Hapludult) in the Southeasten U.S. The hybrids were grown in field plots at three soil pH levels (4.8, 5.5, and 6.6) and four N fertilizer rates (0.4, 1.8, 3.2, and 6.0, g plant-~ ). Nitrogen uilitzation efficiency (grain yield/total N uptake) was signicantly different among hybrids in both 1983 and 1984. Differences in N use effici… Show more

“…O aumento do pH do solo altera a disponibilidade de nutrientes, causando aumentos na absorção de N (Goodroad & Jellum, 1988), P, K, Ca e Mg (Lutz Jr. et al, 1972) pelo milho. São vários os trabalhos que demonstram aumentos consideráveis na produção de milho com a aplicação de calcário incorporado ao solo em sistema de preparo convencional (Gonzales-Erico et al, 1979;Camargo et al, 1982;Raij et al, 1983;Ernani et al, 1998).…”

“…From the report of Nitrogen Management Guide [29], approximately this amount of N was required from the N flux of field corn graph. Different types, hybrids of corn might have slightly different requirements of N, and even different NUE [72], but this will not alter our results, as the crop is the same for all models. This is also the optimum N fertilizer rate in a contemporary study with drip fertigation system and corn field [73].…”

“…The dry seeds were weighed and ground for Kjeldahl and ~SN analysis. Differences between treatments for % ~SN were expected to be more easily detected in the seeds than in whole plants because 90% of nitrogen is concentrated in the seeds of nodulating soybean (Smith et al, 1988), 82% of N is concentrated in seeds of nonnodulating soybean (Talbott et al, 1985) and 70% of N is concentrated in seeds of maize (Goodroad and Jellum, 1988). The ground seeds also tended to be more homogeneous than ground whole plants (especially mature maize).…”
