Nitrogen Spacing Studied At Oregon State Moro Station
The Moro station at Oregon State College's Sherman branch tested liquid and gas nitrogen spacings on wheat yields. Spacings of 16, 34, and 32 inches and depths of 3 or 6 inches showed no yield differences. All treated plots yielded about 29 bushels per acre, vs 23 for the nitrogen-free check. An ammonium nitrate broadcast check was also noted.

Rotation Is Important Not a Cure-All for Crops
Missouri researchers note crop rotations slow erosion and conserve soil but do not guarantee high yields. Fully fertilized continuous corn yielded 97.6 bu/acre, while rotated corn with lime and starter fertilizer averaged 76 bu/acre. Wheat in rotation yielded 30 but only 15.3 bu/acre without full fertilizer. Rotation boosts yields when paired with balanced nutrients across the season. Legume in rotation improves soil to maximize fertilizer use for corn.
