Morris, IL
I've seen bits and piece of this kind of information but that is a great powerpoint with everything together. Thanks for sharing.

One thing to keep in mind that iseedit touched on is immobile nutrients (everything but Nitrogen and Sulfur) don't move in soil very much. If you maintain good soil fertility levels the soil can spoon feed as needed. I feel like no matter how good and timely fertilizer applications are, the soil can and will do a better job.

Mobile nutrients need to be spoon feed, they move with water which means they can move downward. That isn't always true, it is more involved with soil particle charge (-) and Nitrogen charge which can be (+) or (-) depending on which form of nitrogen you apply, soil temperature, and how fast the bacteria go to work.
