- Abstract:
- ... If agronomy in the future is to make the rapid progress that has been made in the past, if it is to retain its present standing in the rapidly developing field of agriculture, if it is to accept its opportunity to render to society the service that the future will afford, a greater effort must be exerted among agronomists to secure the proper, fundamental training for their work. There must be dev ...

- Abstract:
- ... Alfalfa is very sensitive in its response to managerial treatment under the environmental conditions of southern Wisconsin. The total production of oven-dried, weed-free alfalfa hay during the 4-year Period (1931-1934) of this trial varied from 13.29 tons to 5.98 tons per acre in accordance with management. The productivity and duration of Canadian variegated alfalfa was compared under favorable c ...

The national agricultural program, developed at first under the Agricultural Adjustment Act and more recently under the Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act, has reached further into the field of agronomy than most of us probably anticipated. What effect will its impacts exert in the betterment of agronomy itself? The essential features of the A.A.A. program are generally known. Its object ...

- Abstract:
- ... Fertilizer nitrogen is subject to loss from the soil-root zone, and immobilization by the soil and rhizosphere microfloras, which can result in low recovery and use efficiency of the applied nitrogen. With increasing rates of application, fertilizer nitrogen efficiency decreases progressively, while leaving an increasing amount of unused nitrogen as a potential pollution hazard. Since the point of ...

The first experiment investigated crop response to ...

We propose that a systems approach to the study of soil and ...
