Comment:
Planted corn the LTER T3 plots, reps: 6, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. I also planted corn in both N-rate studies (rainfed and irrigated). Planted with JD 7420b tractor and JD 1730 corn planter. Corn Variety: Pioneer 36W66 corn hybrid. Planting rate: 28,000 seeds/acre. Planting depth: 2 inches. Fertilizer applied at planting: 19-17-0 liquid fertilizer at 14 gallons/acre. The fertilizer was placed two inches below and two inches to the side to the seed. No fertilizer was applied to any replications of treatments F1 or iF1. Also planted 1 treatment (4 plots) of corn in the productivity study, (in the front of the GLBRC), for Dennis. Not sure which plots numbers I planted for him, Dennis would know what plot numbers I planted.
