West central ND | You can't cut a fat hog unless you feed it. Think of your wheat crop like feeding an animal a balanced diet. We try to have 180 lbs of N between the residual N and applied. P2O5 12 to 15 ppm usually have some sulfur left from growing canola. If your sulfur is low apply some. Our potash is always very high but we sometimes benefit from a KCl application for the chloride. Seed it as early as you can to beat your heat during flowering. Our normal rainfall here is about 15 inches and we fertilize for 60. If we get more rain 70 to 80 is possible. We have good luck with the Syngenta Agri pro varieties. Proteins run 15% to 16%. Premiums for protein has not been much the last 2 years but we have gotten a $2/ bu premium for 15% over 14%. | |
