Show Notes
In this episode of the Advancing Nitrogen Smart series, our two experts discuss nitrogen pools. What are nitrogen pools, and where do we find them? How is N actually consumed by the plant, and what forms of N will plants take up more readily? What are some potential signs of N deficiency in the plant? How do nitrogen pools relate back to the 4R's, like timing?
Guests:
- Brad Carlson, Extension educator (Mankato)
- Daniel Kaiser, Extension nutrient management specialist (St. Paul)
