[QUOTE="ollie989898, post: 8095880, member: 54866"] I'm far from convinced the MGA were ever the leading authority on maize I'm afraid. You are in a very different part of the country and on much kinder land. Come down here and you will see what a poorly maize crop looks like when it is short of P or K. Remember phosphate availability is poor in cold and damp soils. Very few people in this part of the world seemed to bother with additional nitrogen in all honesty. Used to get excellent grain/cob yield anyway near regardless of what was done- the common denominator being the weather. Of course, in the major corn growing regions most nitrogen is applied before emergence anyway. For me, the jury is definitely out on efficient N 28 for me and I have never routinely applied foliar type products to maize anyway, always preferring to look on a case by case basis. What I would much prefer is a summer with some seriously warm weather. [/QUOTE]
