So USA farmers are going to Cut Fertilizer Use because of prices!

[SASKFARMER3]

Yes but costs will be watched very close in 2015. Dropping fert use by 20%
110 is 88 canola and 75 is 55 on hrs that's my ammonia. fert blend will stay the same or maybe down 20% also.
Soil tests are showing will work.

Just a note, we have soil tests back and wow, they are calling for a lot more needed in 2015 vs 2014.

[SASKFARMER3]

Brave you must have been skimping the last few years. HA HA HAHHAHA

[Braveheart]

Gotta make a buck. Screw the "vultures" Ha.

It's a result of three big crops in a row plus more than average rain. Last years tests showed good levels still at 24" but I think some nutrients have just leached out.

We band beside and below the seed while planting and do cut back a bit from recommended. We do tissue tests after and find fertility is usually more than adequate.

We have settled on 65 N on canola and 53 on Wheat at seeding then adding depending on weather , crop conditions and crop / fert prices

If US is mostly beans and they get another "bumper' like EVERY YEAR, price of any oilseed will be shit! So lots of oats and peas = prices go to crap. Wow lots of choice, no wheat?

Because soil tests is a real science!?
