2024 Abstract - UTILIZATION OF TISSUE TESTING WITHIN THE CORN & GRAIN SORGHUM RESEARCH VERIFICATION PROGRAM: The goal of the University of Arkansas Row Crop Research Verification Program is to is to verify that management according to Division of Agriculture recommendations can result in increased profitability and sustainability for producers. With ever increasing costs of production, producers are continually looking for avenues to reduce input costs. To address this issue over the last four years in the Corn & Grain Sorghum Research Verification Program, we have utilized in-season plant tissue testing to make sure that we apply the needed amount of fertilizer at specific crop stages.
