Fertilizer a bargain for Kansas farmers says Extension economist
Kansas State University Extension economist Jay Treat argues fertilizer costs have remained near 1940s levels while other farm inputs surged. He cites higher concentration and volumes reducing production and shipping costs, plus tech advances and competition. Treat urges steady application rates tied to normal rainfall and notes fertilizer is often cheaper per acre than equipment seed and fuel in producing yields.
