5 140 Cherokee Bu/ac Yield Treatment No Significance in Yield across Treatments

6 No significant difference in yield due to treatment at any location. Addition of a Starter Fertilizer was of no benefit at either location in 2010 Not surprising considering high soil test values. Optimum P >65 K>250 No benefit from addition of K, S, or K + S

7 More often than not when soil test values are well above 100% sufficient there will be no response to the added nutrient. In soils with moderate nutrient levels, response is more likely. However the environment (soil temp and moisture) will drive the response.

9 Is somewhat dependent on goal. Diagnosis Whole plant early, Second Leaf from top later in season Monitoring Second Leaf from top at flowering Allow leaves to wilt over night to remove excess moisture, placed in a paper bag or mailing envelope, and shipped to a lab for analysis. Do not place the leaves in a plastic bag or other tightly sealed container, as they will begin to rot and decompose during transport, and the sample won t be usable Do not sample during periods of stress, drought, pest ect.

12 nd from top leaves, should be collected at random from the field at head emergence, before pollination Sampling later, once seed development begins, will give lower nutrient contents as soybean plants begin to translocate nutrients from leaves to the developing seed very quickly.

14 Take comparison samples from both good/normal areas of the field, and problem spots. Collect soil samples from the same good and bad areas, and don t wait for flowering to sample sorghum.

15 Will identify what is different in the plant. You must identify why. K deficiency: due to planter compaction. P deficiency: due to Acidic soil condition.

16 Similar to GreenSeeker Without a known reference there are a lot of variables. A quality tool for the tool belt Plant analysis cannot be used to make fertilizer recommendations because the soil ph and soil nutrient level must be known. It can be used to adjust the fertilizer recommendation once the soil level is known. The same factors that interfere with identifying nutrient deficiency symptoms must be considered when interpreting plant analysis. Oklahoma Soil Fertility Handbook 2006
