PR-692: 2015 Kentucky Hybrid Corn Performance Test
Ron Curd, Cam Kenimer, Chad Lee | October 30, 2015 (New)
The objective of the Kentucky Hybrid Corn Performance Test is to provide relative performance estimates of hybrid seed corn sold in Kentucky. The test attempts to treat every hybrid similarly in an unbiased manner. Agronomic practices that meet or exceed university guidelines are implemented at each location.
PR-691: 2015 Kentucky Silage Hybrid Performance Test
David Appelman, Rickey Arnett, Dan Grigson, Chad Lee, Jerry Little, Nick Roy | October 29, 2015 (New)
Hybrids were evaluated for silage performance on cooperating farms. Representatives from seed companies submitted hybrids of their choosing. University of Kentucky personnel or third-party contractors planted the hybrid seeds. Farmers applied the soil fertility and pest management. University of Kentucky personnel harvested, weighed, chopped, and packaged corn for quality analysis. University personnel conducted the statistical analyses and final reporting of hybrid performance.
ID-225: Organic Corn Production in Kentucky
Chad Lee, Will Martin, Sam McNeill, Lee Meyer, Michael Montross, Edwin Ritchey, Tom Sikora | January 15, 2015 (New)
The number of organic dairy cows in Kentucky has been steadily increasing for years, yet there's not enough organic corn produced in the state to feed the growing herds. In short, a new market has developed in the state, but few local farmers are taking advantage of it. While Kentucky farmers are no strangers to corn, growing corn organically utilizes different management, cultural and marketing practices and requires new skills. And, importantly, organic production must follow an approved farm plan that allows farmers to sell their corn as certified organic. This publication is designed to be both an introduction to a new enterprise as well as a practical manual for those interested in pursuing organic corn production on their own farms.

AGR-213: Soybean Nutrient Management in Kentucky
John Grove, Carrie Knott, Chad Lee, Edwin Ritchey | April 24, 2014 (New)
Soybean grows best on fertile soils. For decades, the University of Kentucky has conducted field studies to establish the relationship between soil nutrient supplies and soybean yield. Adequate soil fertility must be present so that yields are not limited.
PR-659: 2013 Kentucky Hybrid Corn Performance Test
Ron Curd, Cam Kenimer, Chad Lee | November 11, 2013 (New)

PR-657: Soybean Management Verification Program, 2012
Jim Herbek, Chad Lee, Amanda Martin, Lloyd Murdock | March 29, 2013 (New)
The 2012 Soybean Management Verification Program (SoyMVP) enrolled 19 fields across Western Kentucky, providing ten direct comparisons between University of Kentucky recommendations and producers practices for soybean production. All fields were scouted weekly and recommendations were made on the university portion of the field based on established thresholds and observations from agronomic research. The objective of these comparisons is to validate university research and identify areas for more research.
