Legume Grass Meadows Benefit From Fertilizer Top-Dressing
Chicago reports the Middle West Soil Improvement Committee says legume grass meadows recover faster after the first hay cut with a good fertilizer top-dressing. It can boost hay per acre, cut dairy and beef feeding costs, improve profit per animal, and extend alfalfa life. Nutrient-rich top-dressings with phosphate and potash are advised after soil testing, typically 300 pounds per acre of phosphate-potash fertilizer such as 0-20-20 or 0-10-30. Dr J M MacGregor notes increased alfalfa yields and higher protein with fertilizer.
