The debate on starter fertilizers "Few subjects generate more dis- cussions than starter fertilizers for corn and soybeans", says crop advisor D. Keith Reid. Opinions range from "Couldn't farm without it" to "Wouldn't have the stuff on the place! Fertilizers are applied as a starter rather than broadcast to increase the availability of the fertilizer to the plants, to reduce the tie-up of phosphorus by the soil, and, in no - till, to place the fertilizer where the roots can reach it. The drawback to a starter application is that the risk of fertilizer burn is increased by a high concentration of nutrients close to the seed. Fertilizer burn is caused by two factors: the "salt" content of the fertilizer, and the presence of free ammonia. "Salt" refers only to the tendency of the fertilizer to pull water out of the plant tissues, which applies to al fertilizers to some degree. Ammonia injury can occur if a fertilizer . with more than one part nitrogen to every 3 parts phosphorus is placed with the seed. Fertilizer injury can be avoided by keeping rateslow, or by placing the fertilizer band away from the seed. Safe rates of fertilizer for different crops are listed. in the. "Field Crop Recommendations on page 11. Crop species vary greatly in their tolerance of fertilizer near the seed, withthe broadleaf crops much more sensitive than corn or cereals. This is why we do not recommend any fertilizer with the • seed of beans or peas. The risk of injury also depends on the amount of soil moisture present to dilute the fertilizer, so damage will show up much moreoften in dry weather and on light textured soils.- Starter fertilizers are useful for applying required nutrients to a crop in an efficient manner, or as an "insurance" application to cover field variability. An economic response would be expected in com and cereals in most cases, but not in, soybeans or white beans. The choice of liquid or dry, fertilizers comes` down to a balance of cost, convenience, and the risk you are .willing -to take.
