ATTENTION ALFALFA GROWERSI
Our hydro seeding of alfalfa with fluid suspension fertilizer has proven
to be a very successful way to seed alfalfa. Reserve your alfalfa seeds now
for next spring to assure availability of the seed of your choice.
BIG TEN - MAGNUM - MAGNUM PLUS - EDGE
APOLLO - ARMOR - ARROW - And Many Others
Fall is the time to top dress alfalfa with our high potash fluid fertilier.
With one application we can fertilize and apply Princep & other herbicides
for winter weeds in alfalfa.
ATTENTION CORN GROWERS!
Don't overlook our prices on liquid corn starter 9-18-9-3 S. Before you
order your next years corn starter, check our low prices. Because of our
direct buying we can offer our liquid corn starter at such low cost.
