Phosphate And Lime
Pay Large Returns
Clemson, June 15.—Phosphate
and lime applied to a field of les-
pedeza on the farm of W. L.
White of McCormick county gave
very beneficial results on a suc
ceeding crop of oats and vetch,
says W. L. Abernathy, supervisor
of unit-test demonstrations, ci
ting Mr. White’s experience as in
stance of what other farmers may
expect from this practice.
Mr. White applied 2000 pounds
of agricultural limestone and 161
pounds of calcium metaphosphate
per acre on seven acres of a 12-
acre field of lespedeza in May
1939. The remaining 5 acres
were left unfertilized to serve as a
check on the effectiveness of the
treatment. Calcium metaphos
phate analizes approximately 62
per cent plant food and therefore
161 pounds of the material con
tains 100 units of actual plant
food. This amount of phosphate
is considered to be sufficient to
supply normal crop needs of phos
phorous for a period of five years.
The yield of hay from the area
receiving the application of phos
phate and lime was 4.525 pounds
per acre whereas the yield from
the unfertilized portion was only
3,049 pounds per acre. This is a
difference of 1,476 pounds of hay
per acre, or nearly three-fourths
of a ton.
The cost per acre of the lime
and the phosphate, including a
fair charge for labor, was $7.25.
Assuming the hay to be worth $15
per ton, the increase in yield re
sulting from the use of lime and
phosphate would be worth $11.04
per acre, or $3.79 above the total
cost.
“It is evident from these calcu
lations that the returns from the
use of lime and phosphate more
than offset the total cost on a sin
gle crop”, says Mr. Abernathy. “If
similar results are obtained on
subsequent crops, it is reasonable
to expect the practice to pay enor
mous returns for the five-year
period.”
