[QUOTE="ga. prime, post: 691542, member: 588"] Yes, I understand that fertilizing non-irrigated land in arid regions of the country would be a pointless waste. But in a place like Georgia for example where the historical average annual rainfall is up near 50 inches, fertilizer may be used to increase grass production/stocking rate on permanent pastures. Whether it is economical to do so depends on many factors. Rainfall being chief among them as you suggested. Drought conditions over the past 3 or 4 years has led me to not fertilize my permanent pastures at all the past two years and a subsequent reduction in herd size. [/QUOTE]
