Burning trash wastes fertilizer in rain
A cautionary note warns that burning household waste leads to fertilizer loss as rain washes away nitrogen content. It advises safer disposal to preserve nutrients and prevent environmental harm.
Fall Pasture Fertilization Spreads Farm Work
The Middle West Soil Improvement Committee endorses fall application of phosphate and potash to pastures and grasslands. Fall fertilization protects alfalfa and clover, boosts spring growth, reduces barn feeding days, and cuts feed costs. Benefits include deeper root growth, earlier grazing, easier fall spreading, and ready nutrients for spring.

Don’t Burn Crop Trash Save Soil Fertility urges expert
University of Illinois soilsman L. B. Miller warns that burning straw cornstalks and other crop residues wastes nitrogen equal to 15 to 18 bushels of corn per ton of material.
