Elephant Brand fertilizer boosts barley and oats yields on stubble land
Mose Farm Limited reports fertilizing barley on stubble land with 100 lbs Elephant Brand Nitraprils before seeding and 40 lbs at seeding raised yield from 33.9 to 50.1 bushels per acre, increasing value by 12.86 per extra bushel and net gain of 631 per acre after fertilizer cost. Oats on stubble land showed similar gains, with 100 lbs Elephant Brand 140 per acre producing 8.40 extra worth after 5.10 cost. A late 100 lbs application of Elephant Brand 27-145 to an alfalfa mixture raised hay value by 750 per acre despite dry conditions.
Fertilizer Boosts Selkirk Wheat Yields and Profit
Rainfall was negligible but applying 40 lbs per acre of Elephant Brand 1148.0 increased Selkirk wheat yield on summer fallow by 5.3 bushels per acre with $443 extra profit per acre. On stubble land 40 lbs Elephant Brand 1148.0 plus 40 lbs anhydrous ammonia raised yield 9.8 bushels and added $10.00 per acre profit.
