Field experiments explore how atmospheric-nitrogen materials like cyanamid, ammonium nitrate, and related salts perform as fertilizers. The study covers three years of field tests conducted on an area of about 10 acres the first year and 20 acres in later years, across multiple crop trials.
This edition summarizes which nitrogen materials were tested, how they behaved in soil, and how mixing with phosphorus sources affected results. It also notes practical considerations for application, mixing, moisture management, and storage, along with observed differences between crops such as cotton and corn.
- Different nitrogen sources and their relative effectiveness in field conditions
- How cyanamid interacts with calcined phosphate, basic slag, and calcium nitrate
- Performance of ammonium nitrate and its mixtures or coatings to reduce moisture issues
- Crop-specific responses, especially for cotton and corn, under various treatments
Ideal for readers of agricultural science, agronomy students, and farmers evaluating nitrogen fertilizer options.
