How Can I Prevent Nitrogen Loss?

Why are my stands uneven and corn plants yellowing? The most common answer is nitrogen. And as Eric Rice, Pioneer Field Agronomist, explains, nitrogen leaching or denitrification. When nitrogen is applied well in advance of crop uptake, it is more susceptible to loss through natural soil processes. Nitrate tests can help growers determine if they're losing nitrogen, and if additional nitrogen will need to be applied throughout the growing season.
