Super Phosphate Appli ication With Oats Pays Off The use of super phosphate when seeding oats or barley with sweet clover or red clover is a paying proposition in eastern and central Nebraska, accord ing to observations . made by University of Nebraska exten sion soil specialists last year. Superphosphate has usually helped to establish a good stand of clover and in many cases it has also increased the yield of small grain. Where the organic matter and nitrogen supply have been kept up by the regular use of manure or legume crops, superphosphate alone may be all that is needed for the oats or barley and clover seedings, said the soils men. But where the soil is not well supplied with organic matter and nitrogen, it pays to apply a nitrogen fertilizer in addition to the phosphate. Last year, oats were a complete failure on nitrogen-poor soil. On soils with a good supply of available nitro gen, the oats made 25 to 50 bushels, and tests showed a good stand of clover was usually ob tained. Recommended rates of appli cation of superphosphate are 30 to 40 pounds of available phos CARROTS Calif.

It is most effective if drilled in with the oats. It may also be broadcast and disked in before seeding. The nitrogen fertilizer should be broadcast when the oats or barley is two to six inches high, at such a rate as to supply 20 to 40 pounds of available nitro gen per acre. Heavier applica tions of nitrogen are not rec ommended, as they may cause lodging of the grain crop and thus damage the clover stand, according to the soil specialists. The extension workers added that the use of phosphate on clover and alfalfa seedings is especially inviting because this practice is eligible for payment under the PMA program.
