Waverly farmer Dick Dames (center) collaborated with Extension Educator John Nelson (right) to conduct on-farm research testing lower nitrogen application rates. The study showed reducing nitrogen applied on a cornfield saved input costs and didn’t affect corn yield. In addition, the amount of nitrate entering the water supply was reduced.
