How do you calculate granular fertilizer?

When using percentages in calculations, convert the number to its decimal form (for example, 26% = 0.26; 5% = 0.05). (1.0 lb nitrogen per 1000 sq ft) ÷ 0.26 = 3.8 lb of a 26-5-10 fertilizer is needed to supply 1.0 lb nitrogen per 1000 sq ft.

How do you calculate the amount of fertilizer needed?

Amount of fertiliser kg/ha = kg/ha nutrient ÷ % nutrient in fertiliser x 100. Example: You need 20 units (kg) /ha of phosphorus (P) and you plan to use single superphosphate with 8.8% P. You can reverse this calculation to work out how much of a nutrient you are applying.

How many bags of fertilizer do I need for a half acre?

How much is nitrogen per acre?

The $504 per ton price in 2016 results in a nitrogen fertilizer costs of $52.24 per acre. The costs savings for anhydrous ammonia then is $10.36 per acre.

What is the fertiliser calculator?

This Fertiliser Calculator compares the nutrient content of more than 1500 commercially-available fertilisers. A Dashboard tab is made visable when a DAFWA login is obtained. This tab allows development of more detailed and personalised fertiliser schedules.

What is the University of Georgia fertilizer calculator?

The University of Georgia Fertilizer Calculator was developed to assist users whose fertilizer needs require adjustment from the standard soil test recommendation due to a change in units, availability of fertilizer products, and/or a difference in land size.

How do I select the appropriate amount of fertiliser?

How do you calculate irrigation in table fertilizers?

For example, if your water contains 14mg/L, enter 14 into table. Estimate the irrigation used between normal fertiliser applications and enter the mm as L value and the rate (per) as hectares.
