Once com and soybean har vesting is finished, farm work moves at a more leisurely pace and fields are usually firmer than they will be in the spring. In addition, fertilizer dealers often offer fall discount prices, notes V. Allan Bandel, Extension Fertilizer specialist and professor of agronomy at the University of Maryland in College Park. For Maryland conditions, fall fertilizer applications should contain little or no nitrogen, Bandel cautions. About the only V .- ROSK AMP ROLLER MILLS IN STOCK call For • 6.5x9 with 3 H.P. Motor .

Typical application rates in this situation would be 15-60-60 or 20-80-80 (pounds of nitrogen, phosphate and potash per acre). Relatively mild winter weather most years throughout much of the state makes nitrogen subject to serious leaching and denitrification losses even when nitrification inhibitors are applied. Fall is also an excellent time to fertilize alfalfa, since this high quality forage is a heavy feeder of phosphorus and especially potassium, which plays an im portant role in promoting winter hardiness of alfalfa and other plants, including small grain.

But University of Maryland research tests have produced no yield advantage for a split application in the spring over a single application in the fall. Plowing down fertilizer in the fall is not recommended in Maryland, except under con ventional tillage situations where wintertime water and wind erosion are not a problem. In any case, be sure to take proper soil samples and have them analyzed before applying fertilizer or lime, Bandel emphasizes. No tillage fields should be tested every year. Fields where crop rotation is practiced should be tested once per rotation cycle. : ERECTION FOR TRUCTURES. .cial Introductory pring Haylage Structures.
