Nitrogen would be concentrated in the lower stalk, bad for animals as it would poison them. Stalks will have P and K and will hold it until the stalks break down. You probably have nitrogen left in the ground that corn did not use so you might consider a covercrop such as oats or rye to catch the left over N.
