550  In the spring at planting, broadcast recommended phosphate and potash fertilizer and 30 to 40 lbs nitrogen per acre and work into the soil.  Broadcast the balance of nitrogen in two separate applications, one-half 90 days after planting and the remaining half 30 days later.  Total nitrogen rate following a legume is 135 lbs nitrogen per acre. 

551  This is a boron sensitive crop.  Apply 1 lb boron per acre with the last nitrogen application.  (Recommendation when soil test boron is less than 3.1 lbs per acre)

652  The soil test manganese is low, however, this is not a manganese sensitive crop, therefore no manganese is recommended.  (When soil test manganese is low)

653  The soil test zinc is low, however, this is not a zinc sensitive crop, therefore no zinc is recommended.  (When soil test zinc is low)
