<<How many acres? And what did you do about fertilizer?>>

350 acres, been in the family since before the Cival War.

Used some hog manure on the corn ground. Knifed that in. Added some N with N serve plus PPK plow down.

Now reverse the question and how many acres did you plant?


I'm not a farmer but I grow just not on your scale........tomatoes and corn mostly......some odds and ends of others.

What did you do about fertilizer?

Compost......probably not as good as hog manure but it does the job.

Why was hog manure good this year?

If you have hogs, I suspect hog manure is good every year.......good and cheap. Beats the cost of chemical based fertilizers......esp. this year.
