    I'm not looking to piss anyone off here but i think
    something needs to be said,and its not that easy to
    understand.

    Farms,like anything that involves growth,are apart of
    something called exponential function(i've brought
    this up a few time in the past decade).

    -before i start-it is ridiculous to compare any two
    farms on the planet,the number of variables should
    be self evident enough

    This is fun with numbers.

    A 100,000 dollar farm in 1972 with an average
    annual growth rate 0f 5% doubles every 14 years.

    1972-100g
    1986-200g
    2000-400g
    2014-800g

    Now 100g at 10%

    1972-100g
    1979-200g
    1986-400g
    1993-800g
    2000-1.6mil
    2007-3.2mil
    20014-6.8mil

    500g farm in 1972?at 5%

    1972-500g
    1986-1.0mil
    2000-2.0mil
    2014-4.mil

    500g farm in 1972 at 10%

    1972-500g
    1979-1 mil
    1986-2 mil
    1993-4 mil
    2000-8mil
    2007-16mil
    2014-32mil

    Bottom line its better to come from money and
    remain productive.

      Yes, broadcasting fertilizer like we did in the80's
      when we were half and half farming, preworking
      and summer fallowing. I thought Broad Acres
      might know better then to do that. And yes it is
      grain farmland.

          Boys here are mixing urea with water then
          adding Alpine. Have a old trailer that they use to
          pick up milk at dairy's with as a mix/haul trailer.
          Have a 3" water pump circulating/mixing. Built a
          trailer using an old water truck tank and the dual
          wheels off the grain cart. Haul 10 ton on the cart
          wheels 5 ton on the quadtrac. I have a video on
          my Facebook page need to link it to YouTube

                    Because were a long ways out its cheaper to
                    haul the urea in dry any make your own home
                    brew liquid N

                    The Alpine is phos and maybe other nutrients.
                    Should be around Alpine used by lots of guys
                    (liquid)
