The importance of in-season nitrogen

In-season nitrogen can benefit your corn in multiple ways. Nitrogen leaches in the soil, meaning it moves down through the soil profile throughout the year. Many times, especially on lighter soils, the roots are not able to keep up to the nitrogen as it moves down. Nitrogen plays a crucial role in ear and kernel development later in the year and plant health overall.  Per the picture below, rapid nitrogen uptake usually begins at around V8, so making an in-season application of nitrogen around V4-V6 ensures that your nitrogen will be available when the corn plant hits V8. Lack of nitrogen in your corn crop can result in lack of vigor, underdeveloped roots and reduced uptake of potassium, amongst other nutrients. All these negative consequences result in reduced photosynthesis and reduced kernel count and/or kernel abortion, and if it happens later in the season we could see cannibalization of nitrogen from the stalks to go to the cob which would result in a weaker stalk and reduced late season standability.

Sulfur is another plant nutrient that is leachable in the soil.  Forty years ago, sulfur was not as necessary of an application required in corn fertilizer.  Over the years, due to anti-pollution laws, sulfur(S02) has become less available in the atmosphere making a need for it in fertilizer blends. Sulfur plays an important role in plant health because it promotes photosynthesis, chlorophyll formulation, and nitrogen fixation. Deficiencies are likely to occur first on lighter soils, soils with low organic matter and soils with a low CEC capacity but can happen in any type of soil if it is neglected. Because it is leachable in the soil it is a perfect opportunity to add it in with your nitrogen.  Just about half the sulfur is taken up in the plant by tasseling time, making it a very viable nutrient companion with your urea or 28%.

With the fall nitrogen limitations set to take place this year we need more solutions to offer our growers for in-season nitrogen management to stay within the Minnesota Department of Agriculture guidelines. At West-Con we offer these solutions in the form of top dressing urea and AMS or having 28% available for 24-7 for pick-up with ability to blend in ATS(sulfur) as it is loaded.

Contact your agronomist if you are interested in any of these options.
