Irrigation

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

• What is deficit irrigation and could there be an important role for it this year if it stays dry?
• What's the best approach to nitrogen fertilization in irrigated corn, and what should farmers keep in mind when applying N in irrigated fields?
• Is there an advantage to using fertigation over traditional fertilizer applications?
• What should growers know about variable rate irrigation and variable rate fertigation?
