Manure, injection of 80 Mg ha–1 yr–1 (wet-wt. basis) liquid dairy cattle manure before sowing; N-single + P, application of 260 kg N ha–1 yr–1 and 57 kg P ha–1 yr–1, as single basal dressing before sowing; N-split + P, application of 130 kg N ha–1 yr–1 and 57 kg P ha–1 yr–1, as basal dressing before sowing and 130 kg N ha–1 yr–1, as side dressing at the V8 growth stage of corn.
