While I respect the opinion of some posters that may say otherwise....

A pound of P is a pound of P. Period.

The reason many liquid products outperform dry products is placement (in-furrow vs. 2x2) or uniformity of application (nice stream in the trench).

I have a neighbour that applies 100 lbs of MAP (52 lbs of P) with an air cart in front of his planter. 75 lbs goes in a 2x2, and 25 lbs goes in the seed trench. Hoses and distributor towers everywhere, but even if a liquid product could stay with him on yield (with only ~20 lbs of P), they can't touch his cost (still have to add another 32 lbs of P in the crop removal budget).
