| treatment | N fertilizer treatment, see experimental design: https://lter.kbs.msu.edu/research/long-term-experiments/resource-gradient/ | |
| group number | unique groupings of treatment by irrigation | |
| replicate | replicates within irrigation treatment. 4 replicates (blocks) of all 9 fert levels rainfed, and another 4x9 irrigated | |
| plot | plot number | |
| block | experimental block | |
| is irrigated | 't' if the plot is irrigated, 'f' if it is not. | |
| irrigated mm | growing season total mm of irrigation if irrigated | mm |

| crop | crop rotation: corn, soy, wheat | |
| nfertcorn | N fertilizer kg/ha treatment in corn years (listed as corn year for all years) | kg/ha |
| nfert | actual N fertilizer kg/ha treatment specific to crop | kg/ha |
| limeton | "ton/acre lime received (coded for 2012 only, all other years 0) | |
| lime kg | kg/ha lime received (coded for 2012 only, all other years 0) | kg/ha |
| lime full | lime ton/acre received, 2012 level coded every year | |
| has lime applied | received lime in 2012? 't'= true, 'f' = false | |
| pH | pH | |
| hconc | H in H concentration, [H+]= 10^(-pH) | |
| harvest date | date the crop was harvested | |
