Foliar urea (1% v/v) was applied at different rates and application times beginning pre-and post-veraison. Compared to soil applied N, late season foliar N substantially enhanced petiole N and grape YAN. Smaller split N applications were generally more effective in increasing YAN than single larger N rates. These data demonstrate the value of assessing plant N content at full bloom with petiole N analysis or remote sensing to guide foliar N management decisions. Additional field studies (2008–11) were conducted to evaluate pre-bud soil applied phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) effects on petiole P and K nutrient status. Fertilizer P and K were initially broadcast applied (0–896 kg P2O5 ha−1; 0–672 kg K2O ha−1) prior to bud-break in 2008–09 and petiole P and K at full bloom soil test P and K were monitored for three to four years after application. Soil test and petiole P and K were significantly increased with increasing P and K rates, which subsequently declined to near unfertilized levels over the sampling time depending on site and P and K rate applied. These data demonstrate the value of annually monitoring petiole P and K levels to accurately assess plant P and K status to better inform nutrient management decisions.}, number={2}, journal={PLANTS-BASEL}, author={Havlin, John L. and Austin, Robert and Hardy, David and Howard, Adam and Heitman, Josh L.}, year={2022}, month={Jan} }

Substantial evidence of the anti-fungal properties of Phi on a wide variety of plants has been documented. Although Phi is readily absorbed by plant leaves and/or roots, the plant response to Phi used as a phosphorus (P) source is variable. Negative effects of Phi on plant growth are commonly observed under P deficiency compared to near adequate plant P levels. Positive responses to Phi may be attributed to some level of fungal disease control. While only a few studies have provided evidence of Phi oxidation through cellular enzymes genetically controlled in plant cells, increasing evidence exists for the potential to manipulate plant genes to enhance oxidation of Phi to phosphate (Pi) in plants. Advances in genetic engineering to sustain growth and yield with Phi + Pi potentially provides a dual fertilization and weed control system. Further advances in genetic manipulation of plants to utilize Phi are warranted. Since Phi oxidation occurs slowly in soils, additional information is needed to characterize Phi oxidation kinetics under variable soil and environmental conditions.}, number={3}, journal={SOIL SYSTEMS}, author={Havlin, John L. and Schlegel, Alan J.}, year={2021}, month={Sep} }

A multiple linear regression model was developed to upscale ET using air temperature (Ta), vapor pressure deficit (VPD), and Landsat-derived Land Surface Temperature (LST) and Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI). Daily ET reached values of up to 7.7 mm day−1, and the annual ET was 752 ± 59 mm, as measured with the EC system.

Understanding component water and energy fluxes is critical for informing management decisions aimed at improving productivity and water use efficiency. Few methods are available to accurately and continuously measure component fluxes. We tested a novel micro-Bowen ratio (MBR) energy balance system for determining interrow evapotranspiration (ET) flux within a vineyard. Our objectives were to develop MBR methodology to measure ET flux from the vineyard interrow and to compare MBR ET measurements for bare soil and fescue interrow conditions to independent ET estimates. MBR methodology utilized measurement of air temperature and water vapor concentration at 1 and 6 cm heights within 2.7 m wide interrows. Measured ET rates were well correlated between MBR systems and micro-lysimeters for both fescue (R2 = 0.99) and bare surface (R2 = 0.89) interrow conditions, though MBR ET rates were larger than those determined from micro-lysimeters in both cases (20 and 60%, respectively). MBR daily ET estimates, determined by compositing measurements from fescue interrows and bare soil under vines, were also well correlated to (R2 = 0.70) and of similar magnitude as vineyard eddy covariance ET measurements during periods when the vines were dormant. Overall, MBR systems appeared to provide a reasonable approach to determine ET for the interrow component within the vineyard.

The “Dig It!” exhibit was designed from an ecosystem perspective, in which agriculture—the traditional context for soils education—is considered to be just one of many ecosystem types. For visitors inspired primarily by art and culture, there were objects chosen to surprise and expand the imagination about soils. The exhibit was designed to communicate to wide range of ages, centered on 12–14 yr olds. As such, it was rich in audiovisual media that included a cartoon, a movie, two looping videos, a kiosk for exploring the state soils, a quiz game, and a role‐playing game. It also included scale models and actual soil monoliths. The exhibit addressed the full spectrum of issues that concern contemporary soil scientists—climate change, aquatic eutrophication, soil degradation, sustainable farming, and others—by organizing the content according to scale (global, regional. and local). Interviews with visitors indicated that the exhibit had the potential to effectively alter the preconceived notions of more than 2 million visitors about soils.

While early struggles in organization and financing of the exhibit presented challenges never before faced by SSSA at this scale, persistence, flexibility, and some unconventional thinking won out in the end, and SSSA achieved its most significant educational success to date. Most importantly, the process taught many soil scientists that achieving greater visibility for soil science meant partnering with professionals outside of soil science, and trusting that they could convey the message delivered by the exhibit with the same enthusiasm they might have in the classroom. The lessons learned from the project, in the scope of its history, can help others further SSSA, soils education, and soil science as a respected, scientific field. We suggest six goals for the future of soil science that, if embraced with whole‐heart dedication and support, can help to embed the importance of soil in world thinking and policy. Our suggested goals are unconventional, like the experiences we faced in creating the exhibit, and thus perhaps will seem beyond the capability of most soil scientists.

The SSSA Advocacy/Education Task Force met in 2007 and concluded that quantitative survey information was needed to document trends in soil science academic programs, student enrollment, faculty, and job opportunities for graduates. Suggested survey topics included:

· Has the recognition of soil science as a distinct discipline increased or decreased?
· How has the job market changed during the past decade, and how will job opportunities for soil scientists change in the future?
· How have undergraduate and graduate soils curricula changed during the last decade?
· Has enrollment in soil science degree programs and courses changed during the past decade?
· Has there been a change in the degree programs of students enrolling in soils courses in the past decade?
· Have soil science programs been combined with other programs?

The new fertilizer (animal waste by‐product, AWP: 5% N, 28% P2O5, 4% K2O, and 1% S) is an enhanced granulated manure ash. Corn (Zea mays L.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), and soybean [Glycine max (L.)

Most N recommendation models were developed in fallow systems under conventional tillage and were based on average yield goal, with adjustments for soil profile N content. The objective of this review is to examine the impact of continuous cropping on N requirements. With high‐residue continuous cropping systems, N requirements may increase because of increased annualized production, reduced contribution of N mineralization, and increased immobilization and volatilization potential of surface‐applied fertilizer N. Mitigating these effects on N availability and supplemental N requirements are the reduction in yield per crop, reduced nitrate (NO3) leaching potential, increased N use efficiency (NUE), and increased rates of N mineralization due to higher soil organic matter (OM) content. Unfortunately, increased year‐to‐year yield variability with continuous cropping increases the difficulty in accurately estimating yield goals. Also, reducing the frequency and duration of fallow may reduce the usefulness of the preplant soil N tests in estimating N availability. Recent research has evaluated the use of optical sensors during the growing season to assess N stress and to estimate crop N requirements. If proved feasible for many crops, this would provide a drastic change for determining N recommendations. In the absence of a reasonable yield goal and known residual soil N content, a fertilizer N rate near 70 kg N ha−1 or less was generally sufficient to optimize small‐grain or oilseed yields in several continuous cropping studies.}, number={2}, journal={AGRONOMY JOURNAL}, author={Schlegel, AJ and Grant, CA and Havlin, JL}, year={2005}, pages={391–398} }

Six sites in west‐central Kansas were selected each year for 4 yr in cooperation with area farmers. The typical cropping system was wheat‐fallow with reduced tillage practices. All sites were on silt loam soil that ranged in residual soil nitrate‐N content from 2 to 9 mg kg−1 (0‐ to 60‐cm sample). Crop residue cover at wheat planting averaged 28%. Fluid N (28% N as urea‐ammonium nitrate solution, UAN) was injected in the fall and spring and surface broadcast during the winter and spring at five rates (22, 45, 67, 90, and 112 kg ha−1) along with a zero N control. Typical production practices consisted of planting winter wheat in mid‐September with a hoe‐type drill. Grain protein increased linearly with increased N rates with greater than 130 g kg−1 when 112 kg N ha−1 was injected. Apparent fertilizer N recovery decreased with increased N rates, but was consistently higher with fall or spring injected rather than winter or spring broadcast UAN. The straw/yield ratio was greater than 2 across all N rates, which is greater than the commonly used value of 1.7. The soil N test was an indicator of yield response to N fertilization. Grain yields increased in 10 of 13 site‐years with N fertilizer. Average grain yields were 8% greater from spring injected than broadcast UAN. The time of N application had little effect on grain yield. Economic analysis indicated that injecting UAN in the fall or spring was more profitable than topdressing UAN in the winter or spring because of improved yields and/or lower total N costs.

The minimum N rate to achieve maximum yield varied by as much as 130 kg N ha−1 among in-field locations at three site-years. The least amount of N to achieve maximum yield did not coincide with locations representing greater soil OM. Yield response at two site-years was the same among in-field locations; however, mean yield among in-field locations varied by as much as 4.2 Mg ha−1, representing potential for improvement in N use efficiency.

Our objective was 
to evaluate methods for using yield monitor data to develop spatial yield goal maps. Three to seven years of yield monitor 
data were analyzed for five sprinkler–irrigated cornfields in central and western Kansas. Yield data were block–averaged 
to 55 m square cells, normalized based on the mean yield, and then used to develop spatial yield goals for subsequent years 
using six different methods. One method used a uniform yield goal, two methods combined normalized yield monitor data with 
a uniform yield goal (transitional), and three methods used only normalized yield monitor data from previous years. Methods 
were evaluated based on their ability to predict the spatial yield pattern of the subsequent year better than the uniform method. 
Yield monitor data were also segregated based on the temporal CV of each field during the time of the study, and the six 
methods were evaluated only on the data that were deemed temporally stable. 
The result of incorporating yield monitor data into yield goals was inconsistent across sites and years. For one site, the 
two transitional and three yield monitor methods were significantly better predictors of normalized yield. On another field, 
the uniform method was a better predictor of normalized yield than the yield monitor methods in three of six years, while the 
yield monitor methods were better than the uniform method in another year. On a third field, the yield monitor method 
predicted normalized yield better than the uniform method in one of four years with no difference in the other three years. 
In general, when the correlation coefficient between two years of yield monitor data exceeded 0.70, the methods that 
incorporated yield monitor data into the yield goal were better predictors of normalized yield than the uniform method.

field did not improve the results sufficiently to warrant widespread use of this practice.}, number={6}, journal={Transactions of the ASAE}, author={Taylor, R. K. and Kluitenberg, G. J. and Schrock, A. D. and Zhang, N. and Schmidt, J. P. and Havlin, J. L.}, year={2001}, pages={1409–1414} }
