Use of Fertilizer Recommended on Most Iowa Farms
Iowa State College agronomists report statewide tests suggesting about 388000 tons of commercial fertilizer could profitably be used in Iowa in 1944, up from 67800 tons last year. Legumes show the greatest yield gains from fertilization, with corn close behind, while soybeans show limited profitable use. Acid soils must be limed first, with at least 14 million tons of lime recommended annually in Iowa.

Safe lime amounts tied to soil tests in Iowa
Soil tests over the last two decades show liming raises yields: 5 bushels per acre for corn, 3.7 for oats, 3.4 for wheat, and 114 tons for alfalfa. Finely ground limestone enhances availability. 60-mesh passes quickly while coarser than 20-mesh lags. To meet 1944 food demands, Iowa should boost fertilizer use after correcting soil acidity, since this raises total production with less labor and cost than expanding planted area.
