Improve understanding of nutrient release and
risk for runoff and leaching losses from inorganic and organic amendments
as affected by soil type, hydrology, time and rate of application,
and the use of specific soil and fertilizer amendments (research).
Specific Objectives:
Improve our understanding of phosphorus dynamics on dairy farms
Calibration of the New York P index.
Contribute to the understanding of the use of soil testing for agronomic
response (yield and quality) and environmental risk assessment.
Develop fertility management guidelines for brown midrib sorghum sudangrass.
Improve our predictions of nutrient release from organic nutrient sources.
Increase our understanding of the relationships between organic management,
crop quality, and soil health in field crop systems.
