Overview
Applying organic materials to your land can add beneficial nutrients to the soil. But when too much is applied, or when it is applied incorrectly, organic material can cause environmental problems. This publication will help you select the proper application rate, calibrate equipment so that the correct rate is applied, and learn how location, water, soil, and tillage can all affect the process.
