Nitrogen calculator for Black, Dark Brown and Brown soil

Since 2021, substantial changes in commodity and input prices have occurred. These prices require a novel perspective in farm budgeting and planning. The good news is, there are tools to help growers estimate possible economic returns from nitrogen (N) fertilizer. The N rate calculators are developed for spring wheat and feed barley, and are adapted to Black, Brown and Dark Brown soil zones. The grower can determine the N rate that bring the highest net returns by inputting fertilizer source, fertilizer price, N fertilizer rate, soil test N levels and crop price.
