Nitrogen Tool Bar:

As input costs continue to go up, you needto find a way to get the most out of everydollar. That is exactly what the NTB isdesigned to do. Its high clearance designallows side dress applications to be madeexactly when the crop is needing it,limiting the loss and reducing the amountyou need to apply. The design of the NTBallows the bar to float and contour theground, making sure the nitrogen goesexactly where you want it to.

Real life, in-field examples are hard to ignore. The upper portion of this field had an additional 15.6pounds of nitrogen applied and saw a yield increase of 15 bushels, or more. Getting a yield increase of1 to 1 is not impossible, but the more likely reason for a difference like this is nitrogen loss. Corn will takeup the majority of the nitrogen it uses later in the season. The longer the nitrogen sits in the groundunused, the higher the chance for nitrogen loss.

Don't risk the loss of one of your most important inputs.

Studies have shown the advantages of split application

Fall applied nitrogen can be lost to leaching of

nitrates out of the root zone before the corn has

a chance to use it. Spring applied anhydrous

helps reduces the amount of N loss, but split

applications result in the best nitrogen

utilization.

Fold sequence

The problem with side-dressing is the

potential for the weather to delay the

application until the crops’ height is toohigh for a traditional application with a

tractor and anhydrous or UAN toolbar. A

Hagie STS sprayer and NTB both share

a 72” under frame clearance, allowing

later applications to be made.

Side Dressing and

Mother Nature

Maximum nitrogen uptake occurs during

periods of maximum growth. Almost 40 percent

of the total nitrogen is taken up by the corn plant

once it reaches silking. During this time the risk

of N loss is low.
