Nutrients and water quality for lakes and streams (2018)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2018)
To understand why nutrient management is important on your farm, you need to appreciate how nutrients affect water quality. This guide answers frequently asked questions about the relationship between nutrients and water quality....
Nutrient, water, and soil type mangement of biofuel feedstock production by corn, sorghum, and switchgrass
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
in Portageville, Missouri, from 2007 to 2009 were to: (1) determine the effect of nitrogen (N) fertilization rate on the grain yield, the content and yield of oil, protein, starch, and the nutrient removal by corn; (2) determine the effect of N fertilization rate...
Soil phosphorus pools and harvest effects on soil solution chemistry in the Missouri Ozark Highlands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
the depletion of soil nutrients in association with timber harvest in the Missouri Ozark Highlands, soil solution and nutrient flux in low and medium nutrient status soils was monitored in clearcut, single tree selection, and no-harvest management sites (NHM...
Nutrients management for biofuel production from switchgrass [abstract]
(2009)
Due to the rising need to find alternative fuel sources, much attention has been given to biofuel
in the recent past. Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) is one of the prospective plants for cellulosic
ethanol production. For ...
Soil sampling pastures (2005)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2005)
Collecting a representative soil sample is an important step in developing a nutrient plan for your farm. The goals of your soil sampling plan should be to Identify manageable sized fields with similar characteristics. Accurately and cost...
Measuring and modeling suspended sediment and nutrient yields in a mixed-land use watershed of the central United States
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)
Science-based information is needed to better understand mixed-land-use contributions of suspended sediment and nutrient loads to receiving water bodies. Water samples were analyzed for suspended sediments and nutrients using a nested...
Soil solution chemistry and nutrient flux in Ozark Highland forest soils
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
on nutrient cycling and loss. Ultimately, this information will assist in the development of forest management policies that ensure sustainable use of Missouri Ozark forests....
Influence of residue management on soil chemical properties and nutrient flux in forests harvested for woody biomass
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
to soil nutrient pools and overall soil quality, the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) has developed Best Management Practices (BMPs) to retain coarse woody residues associated with biomass harvesting to retain nutrient capital and sustain forest...
Reduce environmental problems with proper land application of animal manure (2000)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2000)
Livestock or poultry production enterprises should have a comprehensive manure nutrient management plan to take advantage of the animal manure benefits. A plan is also important in reducing the risk of environmental problems when manure is used as a...
Sizing soil-plant filters for conservative manure management (2002)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2002)
Approval of an animal manure management system by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (DNR) requires that sufficient land be available to receive the generated manure. If you do not own suitable land, a legally binding agreement must...
Crop Nutrient Deficiencies and Toxicities (2002)
(University of Missouri Extension, 2002)
deficiencies. Methods for diagnosing nitrogen deficiency by measuring plant color, either in the field or remotely, are discussed. Crop Nutrient Deficiencies and Toxicities is part of a series of Integrated Pest Management manuals prepared by the MU Plant...
Laboratory analysis of manure (2000)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2000)
To make efficient use of fertilizer nutrients in manure, nutrient levels must be determined by laboratory analysis. This publication outlines methods for obtaining and interpreting laboratory analyses of manure...
Nutrient recovery system for dairy farms : dissolved air flotation and multi-disk press
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2021)
"A manure management plan consists of balancing the use and/or reuse of organic material but, more importantly, nutrients - primarily nitrogen and phosphorous - and water. Water and nutrients are intertwined because water is the primary means...
Fertilizer nutrients in livestock and poultry manure (2002)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2002)
To keep the addition of nutrients from manure and fertilizer in balance with the nutrient removal by crops requires a record-keeping system that includes soil tests, laboratory analysis of the manure nutrient content, manure application rates...
Fertilizer Nutrients in Dairy Manure (1993)
(University of Missouri Extension, 1993)
