TY - JOUR AU - van Riet, William J. AU - Bailey, Robert TI - Fertilizers produce more range forage in drought than normal years JF - California Agriculture JO - Calif Agr Y1 - 1991/05/01 VL - 45 IS - 3 SP - 28 EP - 30 PB - University of California Agriculture and Nature Resources SN - 0008-0845 UR - http://www.ucanr.edu/sites/calagjournal/archive/?article=ca.v045n03p28 AB - Nitrogenous fertilizers produced greater yield increases in drought years than in more abundant rainfall years. None the less, ranchers will need to carefully compare the costs of this added production with other alternatives, and also consider the odds of receiving less than 11 inches of rainfall.
