    Starter Fertilizer Meets Efficiency Demands
MUNDELEIN, 111.— Higher
com yields are no accident They
come from strategic fertility prog
rams based on thorough soil test
ing and efficient fertilizer
placement.
Supported by university perfor
mance results, starter fertilizers
have taken a lead position in
placement techniques across the
Midwest in conservation and
reduced tillage operations, said

“The trend has been toward ear
lier spring planting,” he said.
“Even in so-called normal years,
seed com is usually placed in cold,
wet ground and although soils
warm up rapidly and dry, starter
fertilizer can increase yields and
should be investigated as a prim
