Abstract
The results of 83 experiments with nine levels of nitrogen and six experiments with seven levels were used to investigate models of the response of spring barley to nitrogen. Of the eight models tested, the inverse quadratic, Greenwood's modification of the inverse linear and two intersecting straight lines represented the yield/fertilizer relationship well, although no one model fitted best at every site.The three models differed little in their average predicted optimal yields, but a slightly smaller average optimal dressing was predicted from two straight lines.
