Subject: RE: Planter applied fertilizer, what and how?


Donnellson, IA. Makes saying here easier.		Didn't hurt anything on the 15acres it was on. We were about as dry as it gets. I'm only talking enough for about .75-1 unit of S. Really only did it to try and make a side by side a little more fair on some expensive low salt starter compared to 10-34-0 zinc standard here product. 2018 definitely are best final populations we've had. Not going to be a normal go to practice. Mine goes on 2" on each side behind disc closers on planter so basically surface with 30-60 units of N. Plus another 10 units down 4-6" with the dry fertilizer on the strip till bar. And a little with a ydrop pass later. I know you don't agree with the deep band either but with the yields we have pushed to since going that route we can't afford not to unless we own the ground and it has great fertility. Rented acres I like banding. Although we band all our own even pit manure with very good results. And we already have great P levels....just not very deep. We cant get that .75" movement downward a year on any soil tests I've pulled at multiple levels. I did enjoy your article and what you accomplish with products and extreme dedication to not till. We just couldn't reach the numbers we do with strip till with our no till. Have a great evening.
