SW Idaho | I agree 100%. Not only looking at yield but it takes the same amount of chemicals, seed, fuel, time, ect. no matter if you get 100bu or 200bu.
With that said we are new to banding in our area. Some guys have tried it and are having good results. This year it sounds like we are going to be "forced" into banding on row crops. Now if we are not using less fertilizer over broadcast then what is the advantage other then if liquid is less/unit then dry? they are telling us we can use 20-30% less cause all that the plant needs will be placed right under it instead of having some of it mixed in the soil between the rows. As mentioned earlier our broadcast recomendations may have been 20-30% higher cause we were broadcasting. Guess I need to check into that further. | |
