Ammonium nitrate eyed as cheap nitrogen fertilizer advance
Dr Parker outlined ammonium nitrate as a new nitrogen fertilizer about twice as strong as nitrate of soda. It will arrive in improved form and be the cheapest chemical nitrogen source, slightly acidifying soil and comparable to a mix of nitrate of soda and sulphate of ammonia. President Fulton reviewed growers groups solving farm problems and urged immediate orders amid expected shortages in apple baskets and boxes.
