North Central Ohio, across the Corn belt !
for the past 4 seasons we have flown on 30 to 60 units of N and S plus K in various combination's on approximately 1,000 acres of corn !

Versus applications of Fungicide's and In various Combination's !

By far those acres with the 30 Units flown on have produced the Highest yields on all acres and have always payed the application cost and cost of Nutrient product !

But just as some of our plot work with Higher units of N and P ???? No extra profit for the farm over our standard program !!!

We are wanting to Challenge certain and specific Hybrids for a number of reasons !

Also, the conventional Corn continues to return a higher profit margin to the farm's !


So far, the 200 to 220 Bu. appears to be the best $$$ maker
To push to 230 to 250 is a break even for each additional Bu.
In other words, we feel we are buying each Bu. produced over 220 at this time ??? For the soils and rain fall situation !!!

If Broadcasting Urea is part of the overall N program with corn up to about Knee high ??? Yes, this seems to work well and pay's good for many soil types !
