Source Unimportant
For Phosphate
Results from applying super
phosphate, rock phosphate and
colloidal phosphate were found
to be about the same when appli
ed at the same rate off actual
phosphate per acre in experi
ments conducted by the Univer
sity of Missouri. , ,
According to John Falloon, ex
tenson soils specialist, the six
year average corn yield on plots
getting superphosphate was 57
bushels an acre plots treated
with rock phosphate made 59
bushels and colloidal phosphate
treated plots, 58 bushels
These differences in yield, Fal
loon says, are too small to attn-'
bute to the source of the phos
phate . He further points out "that
because of this greater availabi
lity, superphosphate can be. used
at lower rates than rock phosph
ate but this, he says requires ad
ditional applications' more often
This means there is a low in
vestment at one tune if super
phosphate is used instead of rock
phosphate, but more is spent for
phosphate/over a period of years
