produced in recent years. Have fertilizer require ments been increased to meet crop nutrient needs? Maintenance fertilizer needs also increase as the yield level climbs due to improved fertility and management which is a must to keep corn production profitable. In rotation, fertilize to provide adequate nutrients to all crops, including increased maintenance needs.
Reduce Soil Compaction: Soil compaction can be a serious problem in crop production. It restricts root growth, reduces water infiltration and lowers yield and profit. Fall fertilization helps eliminate the need to run heavy application equipment over wet fields in the spring. Soils are usually drier and less susceptible to compaction in the fall Freezing and thawing over the winter may also help break up any compaction that does occur from fall for tilization.
