Harvested GLBRC Switchgrass Fertility Study (Switchgrass N-rate Study), all replications.
In 2016 the H1 and H2 harvest timing of the Switchgrass Fertility Study were only harvested once.
We did harvest and record plot weights from all H1 and H2 separately however the H2 plots were not harvested in July.
Harvested with JD 7330 tractor using the 7.5 ft wide Kemper head and Wintersteiger biomass harvester weighing system.
The middle 7.5 ft of each plot was harvested.
Plot weight were obtained from the on-board Mirus software by Harvest Master computer weighing system, by Juniper Systems.
Cutting height of plant stubble was 4 - 6 inches.
Grab samples from each rep was placed in paper bags weighed for wet weight and placed in plant dryer and reweighed to determine percent moisture for each treatment and replication.
Harvested the remaining plot area on November 1?, 2016 with the JD 7350 chopper (Justin Mezo) and MSU truck # 1270 (Ryan Anthony).
