In this episode of the Nutrient Management Podcast, four U of M researchers discuss continuous corn nutrient management. 

  • What are the most challenging aspects of continuous corn production? 
  • Which key nutrients are impacted by residue breakdown and how can continuous corn growers manage residue to limit nutrient tie-up? 
  • What has recent research told us about how to maximize yield in a continuous corn system? 
  • Are there any other practices, not specifically related to fertilizer management, that may interact with a soil fertility program that growers should be aware of for continuous corn production?
