Fall Fertilizer
By Adam Christ, Agronomy Supervisor, Irene
 

What a fun time of year fall is right now for many of us, from all the fall sports in full swing to hunting seasons opening along with the good fishing (depending on your region). We cannot forget about HARVEST, and what a year it has been so far to this point. Weather ranged from all the flooding this spring to hot and very dry for over three months now. Yields have been pretty good considering the conditions.

It is very important to make sure you get your fall fertilizer done this fall once again. It would be nice to get some kind of moisture yet before the snow flies. It’s best to have some fertilizer spread in the fall and not save all the spreading for the spring. Fertilizer prices are looking to increase this spring for map and potash so book your fall fertilizer now and we will get it applied. Chemical prices at this point are like last year with some chemical being lower than last year. Seed availability is good right now but like every year the longer you wait you run the chance of not getting the seed you want. Have a safe rest of your harvest and thank you for your business.
