Some of the of his discussion include: Barnyard manure in the United States is equal to 3 times the value of all commercial fertilizers used in one year. Manure is not a balanced fertilizer and supplemental commercial mineral fertilizers will likely be necessary for complete fertilizer prdgrams. There are 16 essential nutrients necessary for maximum plant growth. Our soils are generally short in supplying three of these. These three are Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium Response to the first two of these is usually very noticeable and spectacular; with the third, results are not so noticeable and may be spotty in good results. Nitrogen is very imporant in Protien production: or meat production, hence it is very important on our pasture lands. It is very important in the growth of plants and in the succulence of the top growth, which brings out the importance in pastures. Too much nitrogen will make the plants lodge or fall down; and will make the plants more susceptible to frost damage. Phosphorus is especially good for proper and maximum root growth: sugar beets for example. It is very important in seed production: grain production is seed production and phosphorus will help in grain high-ligh- ts ; hall production.
