Fertilizer requirements of irrigated alfalfa

Description

Ensuring soil fertility levels are adequate is a major factor to consider when growing irrigated alfalfa in southern Alberta. Irrigated alfalfa will produce 5 to 6 tons of dry matter per acre if it receives sufficient amounts of water and nutrients. Climate, soil type and management will all affect the yield a producer can expect from an alfalfa crop. Alfalfa has a high demand for nutrients compared to other crops.
