Floridan Aquifer Collaborative Engagement for Sustainability (FACETS) - Field trial data from Live Oak, Florida

dataset
posted on 2024-02-13, 14:43 authored by Maria Zamora-Re, R. Jason Merrick, Michael D. Dukes

Research was conducted at the North Florida Research and Education Center - Suwannee Valley, located near Live Oak, Florida (30°18’22” N, 82°54’00” W). Corn, carrots, peanuts, and rye (cover crop) were grown on Hurricane, Chipley, and Blanton soil complexes that are all over 90% sand. They contain very little organic material or clays and have very low water holding capacity. The experimental design utilized a randomized complete block design with split plot that incorporated two fields with eight blocks (treatment replicates) and fifteen plots per block. The main plots contained four irrigation treatments, and the sub-plots contained three different nitrogen rates. The SMS irrigation treatment contained three additional nitrogen treatments. The plots were 12 m x 6 m separated by 6 m alleys. Each block was separated by a 12 m alley. The north field in the study (System 2) was a corn-cover crop-peanut-cover crop rotation, while the south field (System 1) was a corn-carrot-peanut-cover crop rotation. During each growing season, soil moisture was monitored using capacitance type soil moisture sensors, soil nitrogen was measured through bi-weekly soil samples at four depths, and biomass was collected four times with the final sample being collected just prior to harvest. Biomass included dry weight of separate plant tissues as well as Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN) and yield.

Intended use

These data are comprised of irrigation/precipitation events, crop biomass, yields, soil moisture, and soil nitrogen concentration from a corn-fallow-peanut rotation, corn-cover-peanut rotation, and a corn-carrot-peanut rotation. They were intended to answer questions about the interaction between fertilization rates and irrigation scheduling methods and lend themselves well to modeling applications.
