He emphasizes soil history, whether stumpage was burned or incorporated, and how beet tops or wheat stubble affect nitrogen needs, with phosphorus and potassium being mineral replacements.
Franklin County farmers are urged to balance fertilizer use based on soil tests. County Agent Daniel Roberts warns that excessive nitrogen with phosphorus and potash in short supply leads to lush growth and poor root development, lower sugar content, cob size, and yields. Use balanced mixes like 10-5-10 or 25-25-0 depending on local conditions. obtain soil sample envelopes at the County Agent's Office for testing.
