Potassium in Nebraska Soils: Considerations for K Fertility

On this week's #ThursdayThoughts, Dr. Nick Ward dives into potassium (K) which often flies under the radar in Nebraska's soil fertility discussions. Yet as yields rise and productivity increases, signs of potassium deficiencies are emerging in certain areas.
Tune in to learn more about:
--Why potassium has historically not been a concern.
--The geographical regions and farming practices most at risk for K deficiency in Nebraska.
--The impact of soil type, hay production, and drought on potassium levels.
-- Best practices for managing potassium fertility in sandy versus loamy soils.
Stay tuned for more #ThursdayThoughts!
