Commodity Classic Conference
| Population growth and limited land resources demand efficient nitrogen use
to maximize yields of wheat, corn, sorghum, soybeans, and more. At the 2009
Commodity Classic, Honeywell sponsored a learning center with leading experts
in the field addressing "Nitrogen Strategies for a New Millennium."

 | Dr. Fred E. Below is Professor of Plant Physiology with University of
Illinois. His research focus is on Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE), with emphasis
on the influence of nitrogen fertilizer form and timing on corn yield, Variable
Rate Nitrogen (VRN) technology, improving plant bioenergy yield without excess
N, and metabolic and enzymatic differences between corn hybrids in yield
production.
