Nitrogen fertilizer influence on aflatoxin contamination of corn in Louisiana.

The effects of nitrogen (N) rate, timing and starter N fertiliser on aflatoxin contamination in corn were investigated.  Fertiliser N (50-250Ib of N/acre), two timings (at planting and sixleaf stage) and starter N fertiliser (10 Ib of N/acre applied in furrow) were evaluated. Application of starter, N rates and the interaction of starter with N timing and N rates significantly affected aflatoxin levels.  Rates of 50-250 Ib of N/acre were 34-43% lower in aflatoxin contamination than plots receiving no N. The application of 10 Ib of N/acre starter reduced the aflatoxin levels by 20% compared to the control
