2022-05-13 Fertilizer Application Applied solid manure (70% moisture) to ASP1 plots in LTAR site. Did not apply manure to NO-Manure Microplots, which were covered with a tarp during the manure application. Applied at a rate of 16,000 lbs manure per acre, which equated to a total of 88 lbs N, 43 lbs P2O5, and 124 lbs K2O per acre. Manure was not incorporated, so the expectation is that only 25% of the nitrogen would be available to the crop primarily due to ammonia volatilization losses.
2022-11-30 Fertilizer Application Manure application from lot #1. Composite sample pulled and sent to A&L laboratories. Target rate is 7 tons (wet) pre acre and to spread the balance in the spring according to P&K values in the manure.

This was the second application to the same plots, with the first application occurring in December and the second application (this one) in May after burndown of the cover crops, but prior to corn planting. Target rate for this application was 5 tons per acre, for a total of 10 tons per acre across the two operations.
