Fertilizer Boosts Crops Profits And Rebuilds Farm Soils

Dr William A Albrecht of Missouri says fertilizers raise profits by improving soil health and yielding margins beyond production costs. He notes Midwestern corn often yields under 50 bushels per acre, making fertilizer essential for profit. Albrecht advocates long term soil building over short term gains. The Middle West Soil Improvement Committee endorses top dressing alfalfa with phosphate and potash to boost forage, stand life, and hay quality, recommending 200 to 300 pounds of special fertilizer after first cutting.
