Understanding Spatial Response to Phosphorus/Potassium Fertilizer Application, 18-2023

Correlation/Calibration studies conducted by Mississippi State University and others are used to develop critical values for the state, which are expected to be accurate across all fields in Mississippi.

Evolution of precision agriculture technology has led to an increased interest in variable rate technology (VRT), specifically for nutrients/lime. Fertilizer application using VRT allows for areas within a field to that need more fertilizer to receive the correct amount of fertilizer required in that location, while simultaneously applying less fertilizer in areas that do not need as much
