This project seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of starter fertilizers for improving no-till productivity of corn and sorghum on eroded hillsides of eastern Nebraska. Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) containing starter fertilizers with and without sulfur (S) were placed 2 in. below and 2 in. to the side of the seed (2x2), over the row, and in-furrow.
