What’s the deal with salt in conventional fertilizers? What are the short term and long term impacts of using salt based fertilizers on our soils. Is it something I should be worried about?

Cattle Production, Equestrian
I live in East Texas and this is our first year with farm animals. We have 13 acres, one yearling horse, a cow, and a 10 month old bull. I am trying to see how much hay we will need for the winter. They are free grazing on about 10 acres total. When we bought our property last year the winter didn’t kill the grass and our neighbor who is mainly a cattle farmer had his animals on his pasture and only supplied 1 round bale to all his cattle per day. He has easily 20 plus head eating the one bale. He has them on about 15 acres or so. I’m trying to kind of judge based off of what he was doing but don’t want to do anything wrong. We absolutely love our animals and don’t want to over feed or under feed them. I am also wondering what kind of hay I should purchase for them. Should I purchase coastal hay for the horse and cow hay for the cows or should I just feed them all the coastal hay even though it’s more expensive? We are so lost here, so any advice is greatly appreciated.

Hello I wanted to reach out to you on behalf of the Yastro group of businesses. Yastro is currently exploring potential Canadian green lentil suppliers/exporters to Russia. Yastro is a modern, vertically integrated group of companies in the Russian agricultural and biotechnological context. The Group's companies actively develop and produce high-quality, marketable, and diverse products using the latest advances and technologies in different sectors, such as the dairy industry, crop production and crop product processing.

I am currently creating variable rate spraying maps with Pix4dfields. Is it possible to have a exact apply equipped sprayer change the rate via PWM on each individual nozzle? An example would be 3 zones; 0 gal/ac, 8ga/ac, 15gal/ac at the nozzle level.

Can someone help explain this fertility deal? Family has been applying based on removal plus some to build p and k level. Here’s the test I did that’s stumping me. Soil test levels were n 15 ppm p1 39 ppm k 303 ppm s 7 ppm. We applied manure and commercial fert for a total of 150lbs N 237 lbs P 440 lbs K and 53 lbs S. We chopped silage this fall and I took a composite test and separately tested two wet spots that had no crop this year. 1 has always been a wet spot and the other has never been a wet spot until this year. The 1 year wet spot shows 13ppm N 31 ppm P1 205 ppm K and 53 ppm s. If we look at what was applied these levels should be significantly higher apart from nitrogen which leaches of course. The rest of the field that grew a 180 bushel corn crop and was chopped test the following. 9 ppm N 48 ppm p1 320 ppm k and 10 ppm sulfur. My question is why doesn’t the test show an elevated level of these nutrients if nothing was removed in the one test? Has me questioning a lot of what I’ve been told about fertility

Managing Volunteer Canola Competition in Forage Stand: Strategies for Removal
Seeded brand new forage stand of Alfalfa, Sainfoin, Cicer Milkvetch and 4 grasses this spring. Emergence and populations are looking good, but it has competion from a ~10bu/acre volunteer canola crop that is ripening fast. Alfalfa is tall, and only 4-6" shorter than the canola stalks. Since herbicides aren't an.option with this blend what should I do with this? Don't want to risk winter kill with the forage, but would like to eliminate the tough canola stalks. Combine after a good killing frost? Mow after a few killing frosts? Mow in the spring? Do nothing?
