To Determine Fertilizer Needs
The early fall months are good
times to do soil testing and learn
what fertilizers will be needed for
the 1984 cropping season. When the
fertilizer needs are known this fall,
some of them can be applied to the
soil, and others can be ordered. In
this way the needed analysis of
fertilizer is more available and the
vegetative growth will have time
to absorb some of the plant
nutrients. This is especially true
with alfalfa and some of the
perennial grass crops. When soil
tests are made in the fall, the land
owner has more time to locate and
deal for his lime and fertilizer
needs.
