I would agree. There is no way I would abandon granular broadcast. I don't want to just apply what the plants need for that year as you are not building soil quality. I see cash renters mining the soil and then dumping it. The landlords can never understand why it takes so much input when that has been done. I can see using some of the micros, their starter, and Wex. Everything else (liquids) I am going to get through the Coop providing the numbers work and the products are equivalent.

I figure the money I spent putting liquid tanks on the planter increased the value a good amount so I am not upside down too far. I'm cautious, but I want to make sure I do the math right to be fair to the product. The days of running a manure spreader all winter and then pulling an anhydrous tank through the field as the only amendments are gone. The technology is there to do better.

The draft forces are
