2012-04-25	Fertilizer Application	Fertilization and herbicide application was made to the GLBRC switchgrass scale up fields, L2 and M3, at both the Lux Arbor and Marshall Farm locations. Fields were fertilized with 28-0-0 liquid urea-ammonium nitrate. 17 gallons/A was applied. Since 28% fertilizer weighs 10.65 lbs/gallon, this worked out to 50.789 lbs N/A. Agrotain Ultra was applied at 1.5 qt per ton of fertilizer applied. Agrotain Ultra is a nitrogen stabilizer to prevent denitrification and leaching. 2,4-D ester was applied to control broadleaf weeds growing in the switchgrass fields, mostly dandelion at Lux Arbor and (to many to list) broadleafs at Marshall Farm. Weather conditions at 1:20 p.m.: 60 degrees F, wind was 5-7 mph out of the west. Fertilizer was applied by the Climax Farm Bureau using a Hagie Highboy sprayer.
