Three way fertilizer plan boosts corn yields says Iowa agronomist
Dr. John Pesek of Iowa State University advocates a three way fertilizer program tailored to soil tests. It includes hill or row applications at planting for early growth, plow down phosphate and potash, and extra nitrogen before or after planting to aid rapid growth, especially on soils with no legume cover or poor texture.

Fertilized Pastures Dominate Beef Per Acre Across Regions
Midwest division of the National Plant Food Institute reports fertilized pastures boost beef per acre and cut costs. Minnesota soils scientists note fertilized pastures can double beef yield. Missouri agronomists cite rises from under 100 to over 500 pounds per acre. Soil tests guide lime nitrogen phosphate and potash applications for higher pasture yields.

Profit in corn yields from fertilizer varies by state
The Midwest Plant Food Institute notes that extra profit from higher yields depends on soil fertility and fertilizer use. Iowa Wisconsin and Ohio data show incremental costs per bushel, with gains ranging from 40 to 63 cents depending on target yields and market price. Farmers should know soil output and proper management to capture the profit.

Farmers Will Use More Plant Food In Years Ahead
Dr. Samuel A. Aldrich of the University of Illinois outlines four reasons for rising fertilizer use. Higher yields drain soil nutrients, production efficiency increases farmers’ buying power, crop specialization boosts fertilizer demand, and shifts in crop replacement change nutrient needs across nitrogen phosphate and potash.
