Yearly top-dress maintains thick five-year alfalfa stands
Agronomists say yearly phosphate potash top-dressing keeps five year old alfalfa thick and productive by feeding soil bacteria and decomposing organic matter. They advise establishing strong new top growth before any pasturing or haying and to avoid grazing after early September to build root reserves for winter and spring growth.
