Yield-Nitrogen Calculation Factors in Prices
Agronomists from seven Corn Belt states have developed a new
approach to nitrogen rate recommendations. Their approach
determines the net return on nitrogen application by subtracting
the cost of the nitrogen from the value of the increased corn yield
due to that nitrogen. The approach, referred to as Maximum
Return to N (MRTN), is based on hundreds of nitrogen rate trials
conducted in several states. To try an MRTN rate calculator,
