Potash Losses Vary By Soil Type In Alabama Study
An Agricultural Experiment Station report covers eight substations across Alabama showing potash losses without winter legumes. Sandy soils lost up to 34 percent while clay soils lost six percent. adding a winter legume reduced losses across all soils. The cotton-winter legume corn rotation lowered needed annual potash to a quarter or half. Grant noted improvised rope from knotted bed sheets and a hacksaw found near a window.

Fertilizer Essential for Winter Legumes Says Alabama Study
A. P. I. Agricultural Experiment Station findings show good fertilizer practices are key to growing winter legumes across Alabama. Inoculated legumes fix nitrogen, enriching soil 60 to 100 pounds per acre, but lime phosphorus and potassium must be added if not already present. Farmers should consult county agents to tailor programs for soil types and past treatments.

Legumes Cut Potash Losses for Alabama Crops
Alabama farmers can save about one and a half million dollars by growing winter legumes on fertilized land. Legumes reduce potash leaching, lowering loss from 20 percent to three percent over eight years in cotton and corn systems, per studies by the A P leg.
