Atrazine And Fertilizer Effects On Sandhills Sub- Irrigated Meadow, John J. Brejda, Lowell E. Moser, Steven S. Waller, Stephen R. Lowry, Patrick E. Reece, James T. Nichols

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Many Nebraska Sandhills sub irrigated meadows have shifted to predominantly cool-season grasses. Meadows are often cut in July when forage quality of cool-season is lower than that of warm season species. The objective of this research was to evaluate a one-time application of atrazine [6-chloro-N-ethyl-N’-(l-methylethyl)- 1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine] in restoring dominance of warm-season grasses and to determine lf nitrogen (N) with and without phosphorus (P) would enhance or prolong the atrazine effect on specks composition, yield, crude protein, and in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD). Atrazine WM applied once at 0,2.2, and 3.3 kg/ha In spring or fall 1983 and 1984 to …

G89-924 Fertilizing Proso Millet (Revised December 2002), Jurg M. Blumenthal, David D. Baltensperger

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Soil testing and fertilization of proso millet with nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other nutrients is discussed. Management practices that provide an adequate, but not excessive, supply of plant nutrients are essential for top yields of proso millet in the High Plains.
