[QUOTE="Chickcatcher, post: 5106364, member: 700"] Now Class! You should really pay more attention. Under Cropping there is a post "Nitrogen Yet" on page 44 and posted at number 867 I explained all of this so you could do the Exam and get the correct result! So I post again but it is "20 days" since originally posted. R So lets see how far being pedantic gets me! But are my facts really correct? 20*112Lbs =2240 Lbs =1 TON which = 1.01604 Tonnes 1 Tonne = 1000Kg = 2204.63Lbs so would be 19.6785 bags @ 112lbs A 50Kg bag =110.2315Lbs IS Nitram 34.5% N? IS Urea 46% N? Nitram So if an old bag (112Lbs) was 34.5 units (690units/ton) and you put 1.5 bags per acre (168Lbs) you put on 51.75 units/acre. If a new bag is 50Kg it would have 33.955units and 1.5 bags/acre would be 50.9328 units/acre Urea I don't remember ever seeing urea when we were imperial measured but against above would it have been, 51.52 units/cwt (cwt=1 bag old money) ((2240lbs@46%)=1030.4Units/ton/20) And if a new bag (50Kg) is 23Kgs of Urea and you put on 1.5 bags (75Kg)/acre you put on 34.5 kgs/acre which equals ????????units My answer is! Dose it really matter, when we put it through our spreaders are we so accurate/sqMtr that we can achieve 0.007128 Kg/Sq yard "Is it really so little" As that makes 180kgN/Ha 0.018KgN/SqMtr = 391.3Kg product/Ha (@46%) = 0,03913Kg/SqMtr. Such little amountcan make so much difference. Friday finished N application total so far 165KgN/Ha =358.695Kg product =0.0358695Kg/SqMtr "Oh how many UNITS" If only I had entered the London Marathon today. I wouldn't have been able to share such knowledge with [B]All who waste there time reading this [/B]Regards R lost for a constructive job at the moment [/QUOTE]
