The next Agronomy and Horticulture seminar is March 21
Arshdeep Singh will present “Nitrogen and Water Management Strategies to Reduce Nitrate Leaching in Irrigated Sandy Soils,” on Thursday, March 21 at 11 a.m. in Keim Hall 150 or streamed live via Zoom at https://go.unl.edu/agrohortseminar.
Nitrogen and water are essential inputs for getting a high corn yield. However, excessive nitrogen and water inputs can deteriorate environmental quality. Optimizing these inputs can result in profitable corn production with less environmental impact. This presentation will focus on in-field strategies for optimizing nitrogen and water inputs to improve nitrogen use efficiency and decrease nitrate leaching losses in irrigated corn fields of Nebraska.
