SW WI | I am wondering what you are doing for fertilizer application of fields that have recieved bedded pack manure. I have some land that is not top quality land that I have been spreading manure on and am wondering about cutting some N since I have somewhat heavy manure on this. My numbers are a rough estimate, I have about 15 tons/acre on this field and "book" value from extension offices and land conversation offices show about 7 lbs N per ton. The soil type is a sandy clay mix with some pretty good slope. A rock quarry is about a mile away so that is the type of land I'm dealing with. In a normal year I can yield around 165-170 bushel of corn per acre, it will be corn this year coming out of beans last year. Usually on land that recieves no manure I put on 200 lbs of N thru urea,28%, and a little starter. Would like to hear what you feel is available from manure, how many ton/acre you put on and what other additional fertilizer you add and what a normal yield is. | |
