From what farmers have reported the past 10 to 20 years.

Farmers applying Most of their fertilizer as Liquid, especially on clay based soils as a Liquid N. carrier for ones Herbicide program.  report and deal with HARD soil conditions.  ?

Farmers with an ALL dry program report and experience HIGH tilth and Loose soil textures  that they feel gives them several advantages during the growing season.

Acid rain you think ? Plus Acid based Liquid applied across the soil surface, or in Concentrations or Bands ???  Hmmmm 

Or for thought. Low Calcium ? soil levels

"""""        """"     High free Salts ? High soil Magnesium levels ?   something to think on and evaluate. on YOUR Farm.
