The team found a significant effect of phosphorus fertilizer rate and placement on plant phosphorus uptake, grain P concentration, and yield over the course of this study but particularly after multiple years of treatment application. The combined use of starter fertilizers with deep-band and broadcast fertilizer contributed to greater plant phosphorus uptake and grain phosphorus content. However, the use of starter fertilizers contributed to greater yields only at one location.
