Fertilize Forage
For A Pay Back In Increased Yields
Fertilize for higher yields
High yielding lorage requires top applica-
tions of plant food Ten tonne per hectare of
alfalfa can produce from 1800 to 2000
kilograms of crude protein but also removes
300 kg of nitrogen, 75 kg of phosphate and
275 kg of potash On pure legume stands
no nitrogen needs to be applied Phospho-
rus and especially potash are the key to
higher yields. Ensure maximum yields from
lorage by fertilizing
Establishment fertilization
Obtaining a good stand is the first step
toward higher yields A complete fertilizer
that is high in phosphorus (40 kg P70, per
hectare) should be banded at seeding time
A little potash is required also Remember a
tall application of 1(20 is necessary
High return on your
fertilizer Investment
Feril¢mg lorage pays for itself many times
over in increased forage yield and quality,
improved drought resistance, healthier
plants, improved winter survival.
PARTICIPATING
Maintenance fertilization
In order to maintain vigorous, high yielding
stands of forages. adequate fertility is
necessary Phosphate and potash levels are
the key nutrients for stands with over, 50%
legumes Yields of 10 tonne per hectare and
over may require as much as 90 kg of
phosphorus and 210 kg of potassium
Phosphate can be applied at any time
Potash can be applied alter the first cut and
the balance in late August or early Sep-
tember If nitrogen is needed it should be
applied in the spring up to 50 kg per
hectare Any additional required nitrogen
can be applied, up to a maximum of 50 kg
N per application, alter each cut

APPLICATIONS TO
DEBT REVIEW DROP
The number of applications for as-
sistance from the Farm Debt Review
Board in Ontario has fallen off to about
half what it was in the fall of 1987, the
board reports.
In May of this year, the board re-
ceived 37 new applications, of which 17
were applications under Section 16 for
financial difficulty and 20 because of
insolvency.
Unfortunately, board officials say,
the active case load is heavy in Ontario,
and 418 applications are still in the proc-
ess. To date, the board has received
1,400 applications, of which 46 per cent
are under Section 20 of the act of insol-
vency.
An increasing number of farmers,
the board reports, are seeking voluntary
help under Section 16 of the act.
Board officials advise applicants to
have a reasonable idea of where they
wish to go with their farming operation
and to have some plans or options and a
cash-flow statement.
If a farmer can show a positive cash
flow and a level of equity under reason-
able circumstances, the boards reports,
the debt can usually be re-structured.0
