Collapse ▲Is Your Corn Well Fed is being conducted by the N.C. Cooperative Extension, Pasquotank County Center with the assistance of Dr. Ron Heiniger, NC State Extension Crop and Soil Science Specialist (corn), and Dr. Luke Gatiboni, NC State Extension Crop and Soil Science Specialist (fertility). This program is focusing on plant nutrition, which is one of the key components of a firm foundation for a profitable crop that ensures good stewardship of our natural resources.
The goal of this project is twofold. First, it will allow growers to become more familiar with interpreting tissue samples, especially for something other than problem situations, but for a predictive approach (let you know if crop is on target nutritionally). Also, it will allow growers to learn about how to effectively use this tool to determine if their crop is well fed. Secondly, by having a number of sites from different growers, with different soil types, and management practices, it will provide a means to build a database for the county.
