Abstract
  • Good management practices are essential if optimum fertilizer responses are to be realized. These practices include use of recommended varieties, selection of adapted soils, weed control, disease and insect control, good seedbed preparation, proper seeding methods, and timely harvest. Because of the influence of soil type, climatic conditions, and other cultural practices, crop response from fertilizer may not always be predicted accurately. Soil test results, field experience, and knowledge of specific crop requirements help determine the nutrients needed and the rate of application. The fertilizer application should ensure adequate levels of all nutrients. Optimum fertilization is essential for top quality, yields, and returns. Follow recommended soil sampling procedures to estimate fertilizer needs. The OSU Extension Service office in your county can provide you with soil sampling instructions, soil sample bags, information sheets, and a list of analytical laboratories serving Oregon (EM 8677). Recommendations in this fertilizer guide are based on a row spacing of 60 inches.
