This module will provide an overview of important concepts for soil fertility, plant nutrition, and nutrient management in agronomic systems for profitable and environmentally safe crop production.
This module is part one in a series of 10 that present information to help the viewer understand the principles of soil fertility, which are essential to efficient nutrient management, profitable crop production, and environmental protection. The materials address site specific nutrient management decisions and practices through the context of 4R Nutrient Stewardship (the right nutrient source applied at the right time, the right rate and in the right place). Information is presented on the seventeen chemical elements essential for plant growth, how plants need various amounts of these elements, the mobility of these elements within the plant, how the elements vary in concentration in harvested crop components, and an overview of nutrient diagnostic methods.
These materials were created with funds provided by USDA NRCS and The Fertilizer Institute (TFI). The educational modules were created by Iowa State University in cooperation with The Fertilizer Institute (TFI), the International Plant Nutrition Institute (IPNI) and USDA NRCS.
