| Abstract
|
:
|
Field studies on corn for silage were conducted at the University of Wyoming Research and Extension Center located in Powell, Wyoming during 2014 and 2015 growing seasons. The objectives of the study were to: determine the effect of irrigation water and nitrogen (N) on growth, yield, and water use efficiency (WUE) of corn for silage grown under sub-surface drip irrigation (SDI) and on-surface drip irrigation (ODI) systems; determine the effect of irrigation strategies and N on dry matter (DM) yield and nutritive value of corn for silage grown under both SDI and ODI systems; investigate the effect of limited water on growth, physiological attributes, and WUE of corn for silage; and evaluate irrigation water and N management strategies of corn for silage at multiple locations using a simulation approach. The field studies were laid out as a randomized complete block design in a split-plot arrangement with four replications under the SDI and three replications under the ODI. Irrigation was the main treatment and included three strategies based on the crop evapotranspiration (ETc): full irrigation (100ETc), 80ETc, and 60ETc. Nitrogen was the sub-treatment and included 0, 90, 180, 270, and 360 kg N ha<sup>–1</sup> as urea-ammonium-nitrate aqueous solution.
