Supplemental Nitrogen For Corn
Is Important in Growing Season
(This message brought to you
as a public service, through the
courtesy of Hensall District
Co -Operative.)
Many farmers are planning
their corn crop for this year
right now, and the question of
the use of supplemental nitrogen
has come up in discussions with
some of these men...Why and
when should it be applied?
Corn is heavy feeder on plant
nutrients. As yields increase,
the content of nitrogen, phos-
phate and potash in the corn
plant increases. Tests show that
nitrogen increases at a greater
rate than potash and phosphate.
But what is most interesting is
that most of the nitrogen is in
the grain portion, while the
potash is almost entirely in the
stover. The nitrogen doesn't
return to the ground, then, like
the potash in the crop residues.
And it explains why additional
nitrogen must be added to the
crop in the growing season.
The high rates of hitrogen re-
quired by your corn crop means
that you won't be able to add it
all as mixed fertilizer. You
will have to pre -plant or side -
dress with it as well. Liquid
nitrogen and anhydrous (or gas-
eous) ammonia are common
forms of supplemental nitrogen
and are readily available. Liq-
uid nitrogen is more desirable
to use than anhydrous ammonia.
Aqua is convenient and safer
for the operator and the crop.
It is applied under low pressure,
which is potentially less dang-
erous than the high pressure
method for anhydrous. The aqua
applicator knives need penetrate
only 3-4 inches into the soil,
as compared to 3-9 inches for
anhydrous equipment, and so
plant roots are less likely to
be cut during a dispensing of
side -dressing operation.
Pre -planting liquid nitrogen
about 48 hours before seeding
seems to be the most effective
timing. It gets the nitrogen
into tie ground so it is available
from germination on, in the
plant growth cycle. But you can
run into the same difficulty as
many farmers experienced last
year. The cold wet weather
kept land work to a minimum,
then the weather changes so
rapidly, that there wasn't time
to pre -plant before seeding.
You can still apply either aqua
or anhydrous ammonia as a
side -dressing however and get
excellent results, if you have
weather problems again this
year.
Plan to apply the supplement-
al nitrogen anytime up to the
point the corn reaches a height
of about 18 inches. You won't
damage the corn roots too much
during this period, and you will
eget the nitrogen to the corn
before it reaches the period of
peak demand for nitrogen.
Both forms of nitrogen are
economical to use, and both

Shrier says.. "Every teen and
every parent should hear this

John Shrier is the editor of a

The last issue they printed 70,

connected with the drug scene
in New York City and will tell
some of those experiences on
Saturday night.
Sunday night his topic will
be "When will the World End."
Crusade chairman, Cyril
Gingerich, is quite excited
about the possibilities of sending
copies of the scripture to Biafra.
The offerings from the Crusade
will go to the Bible Society who

leaders in Biafra to send copies
