Fertilizer Nitrogen Recovery and N15 and Bromide Distribution in the Soil Profile as Affected by the Time of Application on an Irrigated Upland Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)
The first project involved the evaluation of different times of application on the fertilizer nitrogen recovery (FNR) in the soil-plant system in an irrigated upland cotton system, during two seasons. This was accomplished by using the isotopic dilution technique applying the 15N to microplots. No d...
