  1. Replacing SOIL TESTING

  2. In-Season Soil Testing • Use of an in-season soil test for N availability in corn PSNT (0-30cm), Magdoff et al. (1984). • Separating nitrate test calibration data based on yield potential of soils may improve PSNT and PPNT for making N recommendations in corn, when NO3 test values are in the N responsive region (Bundy and Andraski, 1995) • No soil test accurately predicted either relative grain yield or N-supplying capacity (Fox et al., 1993). • Relative grain yield vs PSNT relationship was better with NO3 and NH4 than with NO3 alone (Meisinger et al., 1992)

  3. Sufficiency • Levels of available nutrients range in a group of soils from insufficient to sufficient for optimum plant growth • Amounts of nutrients removed by suitable extractants will be inversely proportional to yield increases from added nutrients • Calibrations have been made for changing the levels of available nutrients in the soil by adding fertilizer

  4. Mobile Nutrient Yield Goal (Risk assessment of the environment) • Immobile Nutrient Sufficiency Level (Independent of Environment, % of Maximum yield)

  5. Bray’s Mobility Concept Mobile Nutrients Immobile Nutrients • Depends on Growth Stage • Indicators • Biomass • Color • Concentration • Independent of Growth Stage • Indicators • Biomass • Color Sensor View Sensor NO3- H2PO4- HPO4= Soil Test Root System Sorption Zone Root Surface Sorption Zone • Response depends on reservoir • Indicator of total available • Dependent on environment • Response does not depend on reservoir • Indicator of availability • Independent of environment

  6. Present N Recommendation • Fertilizer N = yield goal (bu/ac)*2 - soil test NO3-N Future N Recommendation • Estimated topdress N = f (yield potential and total N uptake, estimated using indirect measures)

  7. Could we establish a sufficiency level (by growth stage, variety, etc) at Feekes 5? • NDVI N Uptake Suff. N Rec • 0.3 35 40 Yld goal*1.5 • 0.5 45 60 Yld goal*1.0 • 0.7 55 80 Yld goal*0.7 • 0.9 65 100 Yld goal*0.2

Evolution of a spectral test

  11. NDVI Strengths • Sensitive to canopy cover in sparse canopies • Excellent predictor of total N uptake (vegetative stages) • Amount of variability in N uptake explained by NDVI increases with advancing growth stage (% coverage) • Good predictor of N uptake following freeze damage • Prairie biomass (fuel load) • Foliage surface area (pine) • N fertilization need in maize (pre-flowering) 1996 Agron. J. • Area affected by forest fires Weaknesses • Not sensitive to canopy cover in dense canopies (2D not 3D) • Not a good predictor of N concentration

  12. Indices • Landsat Satellite Thermic Mapper (TM) mid and near infrared indices • plant density, drought, tillage • SR (simple ratio)=NIR/red • NDVI (normalized difference vegetation index) = (NIR-red)/(NIR+red) • biomass, forage N uptake, water stress, leaf area index • G-NDVI= (NIR-green)/(NIR+green) • STVI (stress related vegetation index) • MPDI (microwave polarization difference index) • NPCI (normalized pigment chlorophyll ratio index) =(R680-R430)/(R680+R430)

  13. Indices • WBI (water band index) = R970-R900 • PRI (physiological reflectance index) • = (R550-R530)/(R550+R530) ‘narrow waveband spectral measurements’ (sunflower) • chlorophyll, net CO2 uptake, water potential, light use efficiency

  14. What should we learn from soil testing? • Process of elimination • Justus von Leibig (1803-1873) • Leibig’s Law of the Minimum; nutrient present in the least relative amount is the limiting nutrient for plant growth • all other nutrients present in excess until the deficient or limiting nutrient was in adequate supply • Father of ‘soil testing’ Liebig Hyperlink

  15. Fact Sheet 2225 • Crop • small grains, sorghum, corn, cotton, cool season grasses, weeping lovegrass, bluestem, bermudagrass, forage sorghum or corn silage, small grains for grazing, legumes in pasture, native meadows, alfalfa, peanuts, soybeans, mungbeans, cowpeas • N, P, K, S, Ca, Mg, Zn, Fe, Mn, Cu, B • pH/buffer index (lime)

  16. Could N uptake be used as an indicator of yield potential when other variables are controlling response? Should we develop technologies that treat variable ‘yield potential’ What influences NDVI? How can I use the NDVI measurement from last year, this year? Soil Testing: Method of Extraction

  17. Phosphorus • Fluoresce= reemit light energy absorbed as light but of a longer wavelength and of lower energy • Fluorescence spectrum is characteristic of the pigment, so it is possible to tell which pigment is fluorescing (which one was activated) • Low P nutrition results in increased chlorophyll fluorescence, reduced photosynthetic rate, increased starch and sucrose in leaves • If the reactions of photosynthesis are blocked (chemical, cold, etc.) fluorescence will occur in-vivo because the energy absorbed cannot be used. • x-ray fluorescence (total P in plants) • Time required to induce/measure fluorescence (1-2 min) Xanthophyll

  18. Subsoil nutrient availability • Can sensor based technologies assess subsurface nutrient availability? • Sensing with time (Stage of growth) could provide an indicator of subsurface nutrient availability T1 T2 T3 T4

  23. Interfering agronomic factors • Moisture availability (texture, water holding capacity) • Nutrient(s) deficiency(ies) and/or toxicity(ies) interactions • Crop • Variety within crop • Preplant N rate • Production system (forage vs. grain) • Tillage (background) • Weed interference • Row spacing (coverage, plant density) • Resolution to be treated (field element size) • cost of misapplication (economic vs. environment)
