How much Nitrogen for
grazed wheat fields? ■
If you graze your wheat fields, you’d be wise to factor some extra Nitrogen in
your wheat fertilizer program to maintain a potential for 30 to 40 bushel grain
yields.
Winter pasturing alone can remove up to 30 pounds of actual Nitrogen per acre;
and significantly reduce grain yield potential .. unless you plan to restore it. So,
what kind of a Nitrogen program do you use?
Ortho agronomists have two suggestions: one, use Fall preplant applications of
Nitrogen as part of a complete Ortho blend or pelletized fertilizer to your
specifications—based on HYPA or other specific evidence of need. Or,’ two,
apply 60 to 100 Ibs/acre actual N as Ortho NH, in addition to your broadcast
application of P& K.
Then, In late Winter, topdress Ortho Ammonium Nitrate or Ortho Nitrogen
Solution to replace the N lost in Fall and Winter grazing. Use 30 to 5Qlbs/acre
actual N, depending on the extent of grazing.
Fertilizing for high wheat yields is a good investment. Just be sure to put on
sufficient N for top grain yields if you plan to Fall or Wlnter^rfW And be sure,
also, to ask us about our Ortho N and custom services.
