Using Modified Intensive Early Stocking For Cow/Calf Production, Keith R. Harmoney, John R. Jaeger
Using Modified Intensive Early Stocking For Cow/Calf Production, Keith R. Harmoney, John R. Jaeger
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Intensive early stocking (IES) was introduced nearly a half century ago in eastern Kansas and has since been adopted as a major management tool to increase animal production, efficiency of production, and economic return on tallgrass rangelands. These increases have come almost exclusively by using IES with young stocker animals. Intensive early stocking and its gains have been proven effective repeatedly in published research. A similar modified IES (MIES) system has increased production efficiency of stocker animals on western Kansas rangelands. Perennial grassland acres for cattle production, as well as cattle numbers, are declining. Using management practices that mimic the …

Nitrogen Fertilizer Timing And Phosphorus And Potassium Fertilization Rates For Established Endophyte-Free Tall Fescue, D. W. Sweeney, J. K. Farney, J. L. Moyer
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Tall fescue production was measured during the second year of a study with locations started in fall of 2016 and fall of 2017. In the second year at both sites, phosphorus (P) fertilization rate did not affect harvest yields. Applying nitrogen (N) in late fall or late winter resulted in greater spring yields than applying N in spring or not applying N. However, fall harvest yields at Site 1 in 2018 were greater without N, but were greater with spring N application at Site 2 in 2019. In both site-years, the second-year tall fescue total yield rank as affected by …

Corn Date Of Planting And Depth, G. F. Sassenrath, L. Mengarelli, X. Lin
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
The exceptionally wet weather in 2019 impacted corn yield. Excessive rainfall reduced corn emergence and plant stand. Many production fields were replanted due to poor stand from flooding. In this study, corn that was planted too shallow (1 inch) or too deep (3 inches) had less yield than that planted at 2-inch depth. The best yield was observed in the corn planted on April 16, 2019. The results from this record wet year were different from previous years, when early planted corn had higher yields.

Water Use And Productivity Of Teff, A Dairy Quality Forage Crop, J. M. Davidson, R. M. Aiken, D. H. Min, G. J. Kluitenberg
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Teff grass can be a competitive summer annual forage in Kansas. Teff grass is a rapidly growing, high quality forage that could be a good option for producers in water-limited areas with a short growing season. The cultivar ‘Excalibur’ exhibited superior biomass (4280 lb/a) and crop water productivity (610 lb/a-in.), among teff cultivars. This study also indicated that biomass productivity and crop water productivity of sorghum sudangrass (696 lb/a-in.) tended to be greater than that of forage pearl millet (528 lb/a-in.). Further research into teff grass should focus on integration of teff into irrigation management systems with restricted water supply.

Early Postemergence And Sequential Herbicides For Weed Control In Corn, R. S. Currie, P. W. Geier
Early Postemergence And Sequential Herbicides For Weed Control In Corn, R. S. Currie, P. W. Geier
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
In this study, herbicides were tested to compare sequential and split rates for weed control in corn. Control of green foxtail, Russian thistle, and quinoa was excellent regardless of herbicide treatment, and most herbicides provided good kochia and Palmer amaranth control. Minor corn injury occurred with some herbicides applied early postemergence or postemergence, but did not persist. All herbicide treatments increased grain yield 56 to 78% compared to the weedy control, but yields did not differ between herbicide treatments.

Long-Term Effect Of Tillage Practices And Nitrogen Fertilization On Corn Yield, Carlos A. Bonini Pires, Marcos M. Sarto, James S. Lin, William G. Davis, Charles Rice
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of different tillage systems and nitrogen (N) fertilizers on corn yield. Higher corn yields (207 bu/a and 203 bu/a) were found under no-tillage + high (150 lb N/a) manure application, and tillage + super high manure (750 lb N/a), respectively. The trend observed for the different nitrogen fertilizers between tillage systems was the same. However, a greater corn yield was observed under no-till in comparison to tilled conditions for both high fertilizer and high manure. No-till improves soil water infiltration, aggregation, nutrient cycling, and may increase crop yield. On other …

Dryland Sorghum Nitrogen Management: Implications For Utilization As Ethanol Feedstock, K. A. Gehl, L. Haag, J. Warren, S. Sharma, P. J. Tomlinson
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
A study was initiated in 2018 to collect preliminary data to quantify nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from dryland grain sorghum in western Kansas. Results indicate that the greatest flux of N2O occurred within the first 14 days after fertilization when plant uptake was minimal and soil moisture was elevated. During this time period, the timing and amount of rainfall was critical with respect to N2O flux. Nitrous oxide flux during the fallow phase was negligible. The cumulative emissions factor for fertilizer-derived N2O estimated for Colby (~0.3%) is well below the Intergovernmental Panel …

When averaged from 2007 through 2019, corn grain yields were 8–9 bu/a greater when planted into either high or strip-cut stubble than into low-cut stubble. Average grain sorghum yields were 5 bu/a greater in high-cut stubble than low-cut stubble. Similarly, water use efficiency was greater for high or strip-cut stubble for corn and greater …
Estimating Annual Forage Yields With Plant Available Water And Growing Season Precipitation, J. Holman, A. Obour, A. Schlegel, T. Roberts, S. Maxwell
Estimating Annual Forage Yields With Plant Available Water And Growing Season Precipitation, J. Holman, A. Obour, A. Schlegel, T. Roberts, S. Maxwell
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Forage production is important for the western Kansas region’s livestock and dairy industries and has become increasingly important as irrigation-well capacity declines. Forages require less water than grain crops and may allow for increased cropping intensity and opportunistic cropping. Being able to estimate forage production is important for determining forage availability versus forage needs. Data from several studies were used to quantify annual forage yield response to plant available water (PAW) at planting and growing season precipitation (GSP). In addition, water use efficiency was quantified. Forages evaluated included winter triticale, spring triticale, and forage sorghum.

Pivot Bio Proven Inoculant As A Source Of Nitrogen In Corn, William G. Davis, Carlos A. Bonini Pires, Dorivar A. Ruiz Diaz, Kraig L. Roozeboom, Charles W. Rice
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Nitrogen (N) fertilizer represents a significant annual cost for farmers. Additionally, N losses pose environmental concerns and represent loss of resources. Proven, an N fixing bacterial inoculant for corn developed by Pivot Bio (Berkeley, CA) is expected to fix between 20 and 30 lb N/a over a growing season. The use of bacterial inoculants to fix N for corn reduces the risk of N loss through leaching and volatilization by reducing the amount of inorganic fertilizers required to maximize yield. To evaluate the efficacy of Proven, a field trial was established in Manhattan, KS, on a Kennebec silt loam that …
