Soil testing proves location specific fertilizer recommendations
Soil scientists from Manitoba's university demonstrate that field specific fertilizer rates outperform general guidance. Experiments on five Red River Valley farms compare various formulations with unfertilized plots, showing gains when phosphorus is under 30 pounds per acre or nitrogen under 70 pounds per acre. Demonstrations run Aug 6–7 at six farms in Hamiota, Oak River, Cardale, Lavinia, Arrow River, and Isabella with samples offered at cost.
