Nitrogen (N) management is an important economic and environmental concern in the North American Corn Belt. In a recent article in the Soil Science Society of America Journal, researchers developed a real-time modeling framework for simulating soil N availability in corn fields. Understanding how much soil N is available to support crop growth with different N application times or forms, or following periods of wet early spring weather, could help growers make informed N management decisions.
