Avail

Anybody out there use Avail phosphorus fertilizer enhancer? I have been kicking around using it next year. Its not cheap so Im asking around to see if anybody else has tried it on their farm.

Re: Avail

 I did a side by side on one field of corn this year. At harvest we weighed a check strip of each. The avail treated check came in 1.5 bushel less than the untreated. To the best of my ability I tried to keep everything consistant. It's hard to judge based off  of one test, so I'm going to do another next year. I wasn't really impressed though and definately not ready to use it on all my acres. The local rep told me he had never seen a case where the avail treated didn't yeild more. That statement alone makes me suspicious. Nothing wins 100% of the time.  Patrick
