Fertilized the Fertilized Microplots in the LTER Main Site Treatment T3 and T4, all replications (T3: 6, 3, 4, 5, 1 and 2; T4: 6, 5, 4, 1, 3, and 2). The microplots which were fertilized were the +Fertilization plots located in the northwest corner of the treatment plot. Each microplot is 15' wide and 50' long. Plots were fertilized with 28-0-0 liquid fertilizer. Urea-Ammonium Nitrate (28-0-0) was applied at a total rate of 37 gal/A. Since 28% fertilizer weighs 10.65 lbs/gal, the 37 gal/A was the same as 110 lbs N/A. Fertilizer was knifed between the rows of corn using a 15' liquid fertilizer applicator. Fertilizer applied using the JD7420a tractor and the 6 row fertilizer applicator equipped with a John Blue GMP6055S ground driven pump
