Grain sorghum nitrogen use as affected by planting practice and nitrogen rate
Water and nitrogen supply are often the most critical factors limiting growth and yield in crop production. A study was carried out in 2006 and 2007 to determine N use efficiency of grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) in dryland production at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, Nebraska, So...

The study evaluated three row planting arrangements (RPA) including all rows planted (s0), alternate rows planted (s1), and two rows planted alternated with two skipped rows (s2) in a complete factorial with plant populations (PP) of 75,000 and 150,000 plants ha-1 and N application rates of 0, 50, 100, and 150 kg N ha-1.
