1. Is Mitigation of Drought Stress By Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Driven By a Nano-Specific Mechanism or Alleviation of Micronutrient Deficiency?

It has been reported that zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) can promote drought tolerance in crops when used as soil amendments. However, many of these experiments were conducted in Zn-deficient growth media with no comparison to currently available Zn fertilization methods, making it unclear if the benefits from adding ZnO NPs were caused by a nano-specifc mechanism or simply by the mitigation of a micronutrient deficiency. A review of the literature shows that of 12 published experiments... J.W. Deakin, M. Potter, A. Cartwright, J. Hortin, D. Sparks, J.E. Mclean, D.W. Britt, A.J. Anderson, A.R. Jacobson, L. Yen

2. Drought and Nitrogen Stress Effects on Maize Canopy Temperature

Water scarcity is a major threat to the sustainability of irrigated agriculture. Management practices, such as limited irrigation, that seek to maximize the productivity of a limited water supply are critical. Remote sensing of crop canopy temperature is a useful tool for assessing crop water status and for more precise irrigation management. However, there is potential that nutrient deficiencies could compound the interpretation of water status from leaf temperature by altering leaf color and... A. Carroll, C. Lindsey, J. Baker, B.

3. Response of Mesa Russet Potato to Potassium Fertilizer Source and Time of Application

Research studies have shown that the source of potassium (K) fertilizer can influence potato tuber yield and quality. Most of the K fertilizer studies conducted have focused on muriate of potash (MOP) and sulfate of potash (SOP). Potassium Acetate (Bio-K) has been introduced as a new source of K fertilizer. Field studies were conducted at the San Luis Valley Research Center, Colorado State University, to evaluate the yield and quality response of potato cultivar Mesa Russet to source and time... S.Y.

4. Flushed Liquid Dairy Manure Solid Particle and Nutrient Distributions

Large dairies often use liquid manure handling systems because of their ease of mechanization and low labor requirements. Some of Idaho Magic Valley dairies use flushing systems that result in large amounts of liquid dairy manure that are applied via irrigation systems to adjacent cropland during the growing season. Solids and nutrients found in liquid dairy manure pose challenges to manure handling processes and cause environmental concerns. Separating solids and nutrients from liquid dairy manure... L.
