Abstract

AbstractAmmonium chloride treatments were included on selected plots in a corn (Zea mays L.) field laboratory fertility study to determine whether or not reductions in lodging observed in previous years were due to chloride or potassium in the KCl treatments. Sixty‐four percent of the corn lodged in plots receiving no potassium and no chloride or chloride as NH4Cl, while lodging was only 16% with comparable KCl treatments. It is concluded that the reduction in lodging was due to potassium and not chloride.
