Comment:
Fertilized the Cellulosic Ethanol Study treatments CES1 (plots 108, 202, 304, and 401) and CES2 (plots 112, 210, 312, and 402) with liquid 28% fertilizer 28-0-0 (urea-ammonium nitrate) applied at 41 gallons/A. Since 28% fertilizer weighs 10.65 lbs/gal, the 41 gallons/A was the same as 121 lbs N/A. Fertilizer was knifed between the rows of corn using a 15' liquid fertilizer applicator. Fertilizer applied using the JD7420a tractor and the 6 row fertilizer applicator equipped with a John Blue LM-2455S ground driven pump. Settings on the pump were approximately 6 3/4, ground speed was 3.7 mph.
