[QUOTE="whitewing, post: 1050419, member: 14975"] Late yesterday afternoon we got a good shower on my grain sorghum (it's about 15 days since sprouting) so I decided to fertilize this morning. My soils are basically a sandy loam and the terrain is fairly hilly. I broadcast both urea and 10-20-20. Of course I was hoping for another shower late in the day but so far, nothing. The forecast does call for scattered showers tomorrow though that's certainly a crapshoot here. In the AM the soil was fairly humid. By late in the afternoon, the tractor was kicking up some dust. My question is, does broadcast fertilizer need rainfall on top of it to be effective or will it eventually "melt" into the soil? Our day's are fairly humid right now. Thanks in advance for any responses. [/QUOTE]
