Response of Crops to Manure
That different crops respond in
:varying measures to the applica-
'Hon of manure is' a well recog-
nized fact. A knowledge of how
they respond is necessary if the
moat profitable returns are to be
obtained from the manure and
Brom the crops in the rotation as
a whole.
Where interilled crops are
grown, they will perhaps show
the most profitable response, but
when, rotations, consist of grain
and hay the answer to the question
is not so obvious,
With rotations on heavy clay
soils. such as, are found in North-
ern Ontario, the results of an ex.

Those comparisons show very
clearly that the hay crops re-
sponded in a greater degree to

and indicate that the most profit-
able place for the manure will be
on the hay crop,
Another experiment that has

seems to indicate that commercial
fertilizers. wile give as good re-
sults on grain as on hay,
It would' appear then that the
most satisfactory results will be
cbt'ined from applying ,the ma-
nure on the .hay crop, and the
commercial fertilizers on the
grain crops.
