Comment:
Fertilized the lysimeter field with 28-0-0 liquid fertilizer. Liquid 28% fertilizer 28-0-0 (urea-ammonium nitrate) was applied at 40 gallons/A to the south side of the field and to the east of T2 and the north side of the lysimeter was fertilized at 50 gallons/A since there was no starter fertilizer added at planting. Since 28% fertilizer weighs 10.65 lbs/A, this equated to 119 lbs N/A @ 40 gal/A and 149 lbs N/A @ 50 gal/A. Fertilizer was knifed between the rows of corn using a 15' liquid fertilizer applicator. Equipment used was the JD7420b tractor and the 6 row fertilizer applicator equipped with the JD rate controller and ace pump.
