Hints on soil management emphasize legumes for nitrogen, manure reliability, and lime as a corrective not a substitute. Black soils show ample organic matter and rarely need nitrogen fertilizer, while acidic soils require lime before benefits appear.

Effective fertilizer results come with good crop rotation, manure and residue management, tile drainage, liming where needed, and sound cultivation practices.
