The center is holding an online information session and an in-person tour July 8.
Soil
Learn about growing season concerns during this year’s field day.
Prerecorded videos on agronomy will go live July 14.
Ethiopian producers and university staff learn agricultural techniques from NDSU Extension agronomists.
Wheat remains unharvested in parts of North Dakota.
Attendees will learn about the latest research on grazing cover crops.
Conversations with producers and demonstration plots are among the ways Extension helps improve the health of North Dakota soils.
Starter fertilizer increased corn grain yield 4 to 5 percent on soils testing low to medium for phosphorus.
They gained a global perspective on agriculture and soils.
The grants are for cover crop, insect control and soil health projects.
Beef production needs to think outside the box.
Sulfur deficiency in corn is widespread this year.
Water management is key to reducing soil salinity.
Only 7 percent of soil samples show a moderate to high risk for wheat midge infestation.
Elgin-ND is the first North Dakota State University hard red spring wheat cultivar that combines high yield and good quality.
It is intended to replace the NDSU-developed cultivar Cavalier.
The net income from the hay may be as much or more than the prevented-planting payment, less the cost of putting a cover crop on prevent-planted acres.
The program uses partial budgeting to compare the economics of prevented-planting with growing the same crop, for which a prevented-planting payment could be received, or some other crop.
Through the years, fertilizer use has increased substantially in the U.S. and use in other countries also is expanding.
The greatest export of phosphate is due to wind erosion.
National Hard Spring Wheat Show has taken on a different look this year with the incorporation of the Best of the Best program.
The program uses the direct costs and yields from the 2014 projected crop budgets for nine regions of North Dakota.
Dave Franzen and Ken Hellevang are named Fellows for 2013.
Feeding yearling steers on grass is a plus, but adding annual forage is even better.
Even if producers don’t plant energy beets for a few years, they should be mindful of what herbicides they use on their crops this year.
The webinar will help growers and agronomists analyze a crop’s winter health and offer tips for spring management.
The decrease in wheat midge can be attributed to the drought, which may have prevented wheat midge larvae from dropping out of the wheat heads in late summer.
This technology has the potential to increase yields by increasing nitrogen efficiency and, at the same time, protecting the environment.
