Growers from across California worked with UC Cooperative Extension to implement N-rich reference zones in their fields. To help growers determine whether and how much N fertilizer to add in-season, plant and soil measurements from the reference zone and broader field are compared to understand whether the broader field is sufficient in available N.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/FREP\/index.php\/research-update-n-management-case-studies-utilizing-n-rich-reference-zones-in-california-small-grain-crops\/\">Click here to view the FREP blog post.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) Fertilizer Research and Education Program (FREP) released a blog post: Research Update: N management case studies: Utilizing N-rich reference zones in California small grain crops.
