The Corn Nitrogen Calculator

The tantalizing yields of the last several years combined with higher corn prices may prompt some producers to unleash high nitrogen application rates in order to secure maximum yields and maximum profitability. The OMAFRA recommendations for nitrogen on corn are comprised in the Corn N Calculator and they do allow producers to take into consideration several factors including both corn yield and corn price. Using the Calculator will allow producers to examine various scenarios and hopefully select a nitrogen rate that will come close to optimizing returns.

The N Calculator can be found at www.gocorn.net and there are three different ways to use the Corn N Calculator:

  1. Nitrogen Calculator 2007 - Web Version: Use this version for on-line use only.
  2. Nitrogen Worksheet - Paper Version: Use this worksheet by printing and filling out manually.
  3. Nitrogen Calculator - Excel Version: Use this version by downloading and filling out on your computer.
