Abstract

Abstract : The single most important thing a grower can do to get record wheat yields is improve nitrogen (N) management.1 Optimum N management for increased grain yield and protein includes: basing N rates on realistic yield potential, knowing the soil residual N, determining application rate and timing, and using appropriate placement and N sources. The steps are the same for all regions, but decisions should be based on guidelines specific to a grower's area.
