Description: The application of fertilizer on the prairie grain farm is accomplished in two ways.1. Phosphate fertilizers (11-48-0 and 11-55-0) and low analysis nitrogen fertilizers (27-14-0 and 23-23-0), up to approximately 25 lbs. of nitrogen per acre, are applied with the seed using a fertilizer attachment on the seeder. Nitrogen in excess of 25 lbs. per acre may cause germination damage if applied with the seed (2). The 27-14-0 and 23-23-0 fertilizers, if used at high rates, could be applied with a broadcast spreader. 2. High analysis nitrogen fertilizers (33.5-0-0 and 46-0-0) are applied as surface applications either in the fall or in the spring prior to seeding, using a broad cast fertilizer spreader. With the increased use of fertilizer, consumers are adopting bulk hand ling methods. The movement of fertilizer in bulk form, from dealer to farmer, may be accomplished in one of the following ways. 1. The dealer or manufacturer may deliver the fertilizer to the farm and put it into the farmer
