A 132-Year Missouri Study Says It’s Time to Test]]></title><description><![CDATA[Andrea Rice, MoFCB Director of Research, Education, and Outreach For generations, most Missouri farmers didn’t have to think much about sulfur. Rain and air carried plenty of it onto fields, and many common fertilizers supplied a little extra along the way. New research from the University of Missouri’s historic Sanborn Field shows those days are behind us, and that sulfur deserves a regular spot in every soil testing and fertility plan. What the Sanborn Field Study Found Sanborn Field in...]]></description><link>https://www.showmenutrientstewardship.com/post/running-low-on-sulfur-a-132-year-missouri-study-says-it-s-time-to-test</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6ae39e2650e03bc5344dc916</guid><pubDate>Thu, 05 Nov 2026 16:30:31 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/63c754_5044556d8d56416e8f56d3afb0235cce~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_800,h_397,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Andrea Rice </dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maintenance of Fertilizer Spreader Equipment Helps Producers Get the Most Bang for Their Buck]]></title><description><![CDATA[Nutrient management is essential to farm profitability and sustainability. When fertilizer prices increase, producers become even more conscious of efficiency and proper placement of nutrients. As part of Missouri Fertilizer Control Board’s efforts, educational videos are being produced to assist producers with equipment maintenance to stretch dollars spent on fertilizer.  Maintaining application equipment will also ensure time and nutrients are well-utilized.
