New Manure And Legume Credits App For IPhone

Farmers can save money and protect the environment by taking credit for the fertilizer value of manure and legume crops. The value of these credits are subtracted from the base (unadjusted) fertilizer recommendations for a field. This reduces the money spent on purchased fertilizer applications and helps prevent over application.

There are formulas and math involved in determining the credit values. This app includes three calculators that have these formulas built in and do all the math for you.

The new NPK Credits app is free and available now for iPhone and iPad. This app was developed by the University of Wisconsin Nutrient and Pest Management Program and uses research from University Extension specialists

We are taking students out to southern Manitoba to Hespler Farms! Farmer Wayne will teach students how he plants and cares for his potato crop and why potatoes are such a unique crop to grow. Teachers, check out your AITC Dashboard for Math'd Potatoes, a potato-themed classroom resource to pair with this tour video. Thank you to Peak of the Market and Penner Farm Services for making this event possible.
