In this episode of The Agronomists, host Lyndsey Smith talks with Edgar Hammermeister of Western Ag Professional Agronomy and Marshall McDaniel of Iowa State University about predicting nitrogen release from soil. They explore the environmental and biological factors that drive nitrogen mineralization, such as temperature, moisture, and organic matter. The discussion also highlights decision‑support tools and modeling approaches that help growers estimate nitrogen availability throughout the growing season. Finally, they examine practical tactics for building a sustainable nitrogen reserve in the soil over multiple years.
