In 2016, Gilbarco launched its first innovation marathon â Innovathon â in three countries: India, Italy and the United States. Inspired by the FedExâs innovation conference known as FedEx Day and North America's equivalent FedEx event Ship it, Giovanni Carapelli, VP Global Innovation, shares why they launched this global innovation program.
Fertilizing alfalfa with phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) can. increase yield and stand longevity. However, to maximize production. and profitability, it is important to adjust fertilizer rates to meet the. specific nutritional needs of plants in each field. This publication provides information on P and K fertilization. rates in alfalfa.
Alfalfas response to phosphorus fertilizer the first year increased as applied phosphorus increased, with maximum yield of seven tons per acre at the 600 pounds per acre of P 2 O 5 rate (Table 4-4).he best way to determine how much phosphorus (P 2 O 5) and potassium (K 2 O) to apply is to test the soil. Results of a soil test are calibrated to give a Soil Test Index that relates to the amount needed in pounds per acre of P 2 O 5 or K 2 O (Table 4-2).
