Response Of Soybeans To Available Potassium In Three Kentucky Soils, John H. Grove, William O. Thom, Lloyd W. Murdock, James H. Herbek May 1990

Response Of Soybeans To Available Potassium In Three Kentucky Soils, John H. Grove, William O. Thom, Lloyd W. Murdock, James H. Herbek

Agronomy Notes

Soybeans are produced in nearly all of Kentucky's soil physiographic regions. Soybean response to potassium (K) fertilization and soil test Kvaries with soil type and location. This variation may be associated with the wide range in soil chemical and mineralogical properties among the different regions. Of particular interest are differences in that level of soil test Kat which no further yield response to K fertilizer application would be expected. The main objective of this work was to evaluate the soil K-soybean response relationship on three different field sites where soybean yields were increased by fertilizer K. Several measures of soil …


Soil Test Potassium As An Indicator Of Tobacco Response To Band Application Of Fertilizer, J. L. Sims, Kenneth L. Wells, E. C. Schwamberger Apr 1990

Soil Test Potassium As An Indicator Of Tobacco Response To Band Application Of Fertilizer, J. L. Sims, Kenneth L. Wells, E. C. Schwamberger

Agronomy Notes

During the past 10 years, several studies have been conducted at Lexington on the University of Kentucky Experiment Farm to compare the effect of banding fertilizer 10 to 12 inches to each side of the row with preplant broadcast applications on growth and yield of burley tobacco. Generally, banding most of the nitrogen and potassium has led to fewer problems with salt and manganese toxicity and to improved growth during the early season. However, as compared to broadcast application, banding has had varying effects on cured leaf yields. In 'some experiments banding resulted in higher yields, in other experiments in …
