Wheat Straw

タイトルまたは説明

Baling wheat straw has become a more common practice in the past few years for many reasons,

While the uses for wheat straw are varied, removing straw has at least one common denominator: exporting nutrients out of the field.

Knowing how much nutrient is contained in straw is important, It helps producers know the value of the straw, in addition to how much fertilizer is being removed, or in other words, how much fertilizer should be applied back to the field to maintain fertility levels.

it is a way to determine how much fertilizer is being removed with the straw is to obtain the weight of the bales and to extract a representative sample of the straw. Using that sample, two values must be obtained from a testing lab — moisture content to determine the dry weight of the bale and nutrient content of the sample reported on a dry basis.
