ge jr - 12/1/2011 17:17 Soil-life Thanks for posting these articles. I was looking at some soil samples of one of our custumers that we have been spreading litter on the last few years and we are see small increases in organtic matter.6-1% and the PH is also comeing up some on these feilds and the K was holding its own but most feilds it was going down. This custumer is only useing litter and 32%. Thank You always consider that as one adds adequate Nutrition, Rich soluble Calcium, and Adjust the Cations for increased Crop Production Potential, and one increases Nutrient Removal rates. We need to re evaluate the total fertility program. As I have Posted MANY time s. For every 1-2 ton of Litter applied, I suggest applying 100 to 200 lbs of 0-0-60, 100 Lbs of AMS and 20 lbs of a 10 or 14% dry boron Product. Adjust for Your needs. Please call me if you have any further questions ( 419-210-6825 ) John |
