Below is a list of postings to the Cornell Nutrient Management Spear Program (NMSP) website in May so far. We just posted the new protocols for the Yield Monitors for Corn Silage and Alfalfa/Grass. Harvest of the double crop project (winter wheat, cereal rye, triticale harvested as forages is in full swing and all but one of the 44 trials will be harvested before Memorial Day). The first alfalfa trials will be harvested this week as well.
