15. Digging Deep into Soil Science with Professor Emeritus R. Jay Goos
Manage episode 435375995 series 3547738
Discover the secrets of soil fertility, straight from the expert himself, Dr. R. Jay Goos, Professor Emeritus at NDSU. From his humble beginnings on a farm in western Iowa to becoming a revered educator, Dr. Goos shares his unique journey. Immerse yourself in his passion for soil fertility and some helpful takeaways from Introduction to Soils. Sit back and listen as we discuss practical applications of soil science, the perfect intersection of earth science, biology, chemistry, and physics.
In this episode, Dr. Goos walks us through his extensive research work on chloride fertilization, urease and nitrification inhibitors, and phosphorus fertilizaiton in wheat. We dive into the challenges and triumphs of his research on Iron Deficiency Chlorosis (IDC) in soybeans, and the vital role of chloride as a micronutrient in North Dakota agriculture. Gain an understanding of the historical and contemporary practices of chloride application, and the significance of iron in plant health, all through the lens of a seasoned soil chemist.
In the final segment, join us for a deep dive into the advancements in soil microbiology and precision agriculture. Dr. Goos contrasts traditional soil microbiology methods with modern DNA testing, addressing the challenges of interpreting extensive data. Explore the dynamic rhizosphere affected by IDC and the innovative solutions provided by variable rate technology (VRT) in managing it. We wrap up with a discussion on the forward-thinking solutions from GK Technology, and our shared enthusiasm for putting these concepts to the test out in the field. Don't miss this stimulating conversation packed with insights about soil chemistry with the soil chemistry legend that is Dr. R. Jay Goos.
