Message: <blockquote data-quote="gst" data-source="post: 178756" data-attributes="member: 373">The typical application is shallow 1 - 2 inches. Rates are minor so as not to damage root structure. I guess most farmers I know don;t like going thru the work and expense of applying fertilizers of any kind just ot watch  them run out drain tiles. Plainsman seems unaware of the advancements in ag as well as regulatory laws from when he was on the farm 50 plus years ago.If he actually wishes to have a worthwhile discussion of value he needs to take the time to learn about what is being discussed before offering his "expertise".- - - Updated - - -There are a number of studies paired with workshops for producers that are designed to determine how to apply fertilizers including hog manure on tiled lands to PREVENT losses thru the tile system. are there those that ignore proper handling and application of manure, sure there are a small minority and they face significant fines. So combine those fines along with an increase scrutiny and social media with everyones cameras phones and the ability to text a pic directly to the State Health Dept combine that with the work and expense of application and you have a FAR different picture than some would like to paint. Indeed there is the risk of an oil spill in a river but those people still drive their cars to protest that. Indeed there is a risk of a hog facility waste spill in a river but those people here pecking away at the computer likely still order the bacon cheese burger. And they would also likely be the first one whining if the price on a package of bacon doubled. Say plains you never did say if you supported the DAPL...........</blockquote>
