Time Of Application Of Solid Nitrogen Fertilisers., M G. Mason

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

The current recommendations for time of application of soild nitrogen fertilisers such as urea, ammonium nitrate and sulphate of ammonia are:

Zone A: These fertilisers should be applied as close to seeding as possible.

Zone B: As for zone A except on very sandy soils which are very prone to leaching, where application can be delayed 2-3 weeks.

Zone C: Applications should be delayed about 3 weeks after seeding.

The Fate Of Nitrogen In N-P Compound Fertiliser Urea And Ammonium Nitrate., M G. Mason

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial: 69WH4

Aim of Trial : to follow the movement of nitrogen in the soil and to follow the chemical changes of the nitrogen applied as N-P compound 24 :24, urea and ammonium nitrate. Also to follow the pattern of uptake of this nitrogen by the plants. To compare the effects of these fertilisers on the yields of wheat and to relate differences to changes in the nitrogen fractions in the soil and to nitrogen and phosphorus in the plants.

Nitrogen Use On First Crops After Legume Pasture, M G. Mason

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Apart from the normal factors affecting response of cereals to nitrogen fertilizers, i.e. length of growing season, rainfall, soil type etc, there are other factors which affect the response after a legume pasture. these factors include length of the previous legume phase and how good was the stand of legumes. Unfortunately for most of the trials in the past, involving the use of nitrogen on first crops after legumes, this information is not available.

Granular Fertiliser, C R. Hale

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

There is general agreement that granulation of fertilisers improves their physical characteristics with respect to handling, storage and distribution in the field. These physical advantages rather tan any established agronomic reason appear to be responsible for the increasing use of granular fertiliser.
