Moisture and nitrogen guidelines for winter wheat
County Agent Roberts warns dry land wheat growers to consider moisture supply before applying commercial nitrogen. A rule of thumb is one pound of available nitrogen per bushel per acre in average years, with 20 bu acre needing about 20 pounds and 30 to 35 pounds for 35 bu acre. Soil tests in Franklin County show phosphate is rarely deficient unless long years of alfalfa or haying have occurred or yard manure was not returned.
