Subject: RE: Banding P on wheat rate


Northeast Indiana
So you are aiming for 30lbs of P per acre? If so, you would be appllying a total of 155lbs/acre (125lbs wheat + 30lbs P) You need to figure out how many lbs of wheat your drill holds and mix up 1 pound of P for every 4.17 lbs of wheat. Obviously the P will displace some of the wheat in the drill, so you will need to take that into account as well.

Edit: If your P source is MAP you will need 1 pound of MAP for every 2.17 pounds of wheat. The 4.17:1 ratio would be elemental pounds of Phosphorus
