Fertilizer Use Is Important Despite Higher Prices
College Station reports Texas Agricultural Extension Service agronomist John Box says farmers should not cut fertilizer use despite price hikes up to 25 percent. He compares sorghum costs per bushel rising from 15 to 20 cents with grain futures above 4 dollars per hundredweight, concluding the extra fertilizer cost remains a good investment. Speed and death are two words that always travel hand in hand on the highways.
