From Michigan State University:
A new website, soil.msu.edu, is now available to assist with making timely soil fertility and plant nutrition decisions. The site's goal is to provide science-based research and extension information that improves crop production, increases the ecological efficiency, and incorporates progressive nutrient management strategies for production agricultural systems.
Some of the latest research results in corn, wheat, sugarbeet, soybean and potato cropping systems, as well as events from around the state of Michigan, will be updated regularly. Topics including 4R nutrient stewardship, applied agronomic research, cover crops, soil health and microbial activity are currently being researched and will be updated as results come in.
To check out the website, go to soil.msu.edu.
