Real Time Liquid Manure Testing and Nutrient Management

This proposal is intended to test the nutrient analysis of hog manure in order to adjust application rate on a load-by-load basis with a goal of applying the manure using a variable rate prescription. Building on the information learned through nitrogen management trials in 2017, this project will focus on improving the precision of application rates of injected liquid hog manure to minimize risk of nitrogen losses.

Inter-seeding Cover Crops while Side-dressing Nitrogen

This proposal is intended to monitor the nitrogen requirement and overall fertilizer cost contrasting fall applied hog manure with side-dress nitrogen, strip till with side-dress nitrogen, and conventional tillage with side-dress nitrogen.
