Effects of rates and placement methods of urea and potassium chloride on soil nitrogen and potassium and corn dry matter yield

Placement and interaction of urea and KCl fertilizers for corn production needs to be evaluated to develop rational fertilizer management programs. A field study, involving three rates of urea and KCl with band and broadcast placements, was conducted with corn on two Quebec soils in 1988 and 1989 to determine nutrient interactions on corn (Zea mays L.) dry matter yields, N and P uptake and on soil N and K. In two sites (Chicot 1988 and Ormstown...
