The ability of po tassium to improve nitrogen uptake ap pears to occur regard less of the level of available nitrogen. One study with wheat found that high potas sium combined with low nitrogen increas ed nitrogen uptake by 33 percent and in creased percent pro tein from 13.3 to 15.3. When the wheat was supplied with high potassium and high nitrogen, nitro gen uptake increased 29 percent, and pro tein increased from 16.7 to 17.6 percent. Grain protein is not the only quality factor positively influenced by potassium. Kernel weight, size, and plumpness are also improved. And of course, yields in crease when potas sium is applied to de ficient soils. All plants require plenty of potassium. But high protein crops require so much more. Forage, oil seeds, and pulse crops all have one thing in common they yield high pro tein, and they need to be well supplied with potassium to produce it. The world’s popu lation wants and needs more protein. To produce those pro teins in the most effi cient way, pay atten tion to potassium fer tility. A pound of potassium makes a pound of nitrogen go further. For more informa tion, contact Dr. Terry L.
