Did your nitrogen management program perform as expected in 2019? Last season’s weather variability caused numerous issues for producers, with nitrogen management at the forefront. While no one can tell you what 2020 may throw at us, there are some adjustments we might be able to make that can help us better manage nitrogen in the next crop year.
A focus on nitrogen management is the subject of our 2020 Meadowlark Extension District/Atchison County crop production meeting scheduled for 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, February 11th, 2020 at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Nortonville. We’ll discuss all things nitrogen: differences in N sources, inhibitors, N use efficiency, and more. K-State Research & Extension Nutrient Management Specialist Dr. Dorivar Ruiz-Diaz will be our keynote speaker. He’ll discuss the nitrogen cycle, and how we can best manage nitrogen heading in to spring.
We’ll do a brief update on all things Farm Bill, including an update in marketing year average prices. Our newest KSU Agronomy Department member – Weed Management Specialist Sarah Lancaster may make a guest appearance as well.
The meeting will start at 10:00 a.m. and we’ll wrap up with a light lunch sponsored by the Kendall State Bank (Valley Falls, Nortonville, Winchester) and Bartlett Grain. For a meal count, RSVP by noon, Monday, February 10th to the Oskaloosa Office of the Meadowlark Extension District at (785) 863-2212 or via e-mail to dhallaue@ksu.edu .
