For more accurate fertilizer recommendations, use the equations below for your soil group:

Fertilizer Recommendation Formula
P2O5		K2O
Soil Group*	Equation**	Soil Group*	Equation**
1 & 2	Y = 90 - 1.70X	1	Y = 90 - 0.72X
3	Y = 90 - 2.80X	2	Y = 90 - 0.46X
4	Y = 90 - 1.19X	3	Y = 90 - 0.35X
		4	Y = 90 - 0.35X

* - Use Soil Group from soil test report, if available.
** - Y = pounds fertilizer P₂O₅ or K₂O per acre required; X = soil test P or K

K requirement level	2		N rate	80
Lime code no.	1		PK code no.	12
Mg code no.	1
