Subject: Fertilizer Math



King City, Mo
I pickuped up a load of mixed fertilizer today. I was looking at the ticket and trying to reverse engineer the info they gave me because I have always wondered how they came up with the spread 229lb to the acre when 10.6+50+80 = 140.6


The info I have

actual 10.6-50-80
analysis 4.61-21.78-34.87

Map 11-52-0

Potash 0-0-62

Cost per ton $548.70

$63.03/acre

Weight/Acre 229.4869

53000lbs

This isn't something that i must know, but i'd like to learn how mix fertilizer is figured.
