 COMMERCIAL FERTILIZER IN KENTUCKY, FALL SEASON 1963 5
This bulletin contains results of analyses of 668 official samples of com-
mercial fertilizers made during the period July 1 through December 31, 1963, V
Separate tables are provided for the results of analyses of mixed dry fer-
tilizers, mixed liquid fertilizers, straight materials, boron and pesticides.
EXPLANATION OF TABLES
The information given in the following tables should be useful in deter-
mining how nearly a manufacturer is meeting the chemical guarantee printed
on the bag or tag for the fertilizer represented by the samples listed. This
may be done by comparing the guarantee shown at the beginning of each listing
of s ample s with the actual analysis in the columns at the right in terms of
nitrogen, available phosphoric acid and potash.
An additional means of comparing guarantees with the analyses of sam-
ples is in the percent of relative value found, shown in the extreme right-hand
column. The following examples illustrate how this relative value is calcu-
lated;
I A 5-10-15 sulfate fertilizer is guaranteed to contain 5 units of Nitrogen,
10 units of Available Phosphoric Acid and 15 units of Potash. Factors for
c omputing the relative value of these plant foods are: `3 for Nitrogen, Z for
Available Phosphoric Acid and 1 for Potash. Thus the combined guaranteed
value of the product represented is calculated:
5.0 Units of Nitrogen x 3 = 15.0
10.0 Units of Available Phosphoric Acid x Z : Z0. O
15.0 Units of Potash xl : 15. O
Total computed guaranteed value 50. O
The same procedure is followed for "found values. " Assuming a sample
of 5-10-15 was found to contain 5. l units of Nitrogen, 10.2 units of Available
Phos phoric Acid and 15.1 units of Potash, the relative found value is com-
_ puted:
5.1 Units of Nitrogen x 3 : 15. 3
10. Z Units of Available Phosphoric Acid x Z : 20. 4
15.1 Units of Potash xl : 15.1
Total computed value 50. 8
50. 8 (computed found value of sample) divided by 50.0 (computed guar-
anteed value) times 100 (to arrive at percentage) gives 101. 6 as the percent of
the relative value found.
In some samples a deficiency in one nutrient is accompanied by an over-
run in another nutrient. They may be evidence of improper mixing or weighing
by the manufacturer. Extreme variations of this kind cannot be attributed to
separation of materials (segregation) after the product is bagged though this
may be a minor factor. Excess of one nutrient cannot compensate for defi-
ciency of another nutrient. The purchaser is entitled to receive the full guar-
antee of all nutrients as expressed by the manufacturer‘s guaranteed analysis.
The results of analyses of all inspection samples are given in tables 1, 2,
3, and 4. If an analysis shows a deficiency of more than the tolerance, the
amount claimed for Nitrogen, Phosphoric Acid or Potash, or if the percent of
_ the relative value is 97 or less, the result is indicated by an asterisk.

 6 REGULATORY BULLETIN 181
TONNAGE OF FERTILIZER SOLD
The tonnage of fertilizer sold in 1963 was about 646,000 tons estimated _
from invoices. This represents an increase of about 14,000 tons over 1962.
There was an increase of about 13, 000 tons in total mixed fertilizer sold and
an increase of about 1, 000 tons of fertilizer materials.
SUGGESTED RATIOS AND MINIMUM GRADES OF FERTILIZER
FOR KENTUCKY1964
The following ratios along with the minimum grade of fertilizer in each
ratio is suggested for use in Kentucky during the Calendar year 1964.
Ratio Minimum Grade
0-1-1 O-20-20
0-1-2 0-10-20*
0-1-3 0-10-30*
1-1-1 10-10-10
1-1-3 6- 6-18
1-2-2 5-10-10
1-2-3 5-10-15
1-3-2 4-12- 8
1-4-1 4-16- 4=¤==1=
1-4-4 5-20-20=7=
2-1-1 12- 6- 6 ‘
*When used on clov e r for seed production or on alfalfa, grades within
these ratios should have boron added.
**This is a special fe r tiliz e r for burned tobacco plant beds. Only one
grade in the ratio is suggested. The grade 4-12-8 may also be used on
plant beds.
Grades higher than the minimum grades in all ratios except the 1-4-1
ratio are considered to be on the suggested list.
ln addition to this list of mixed fertilizers, straight materials are sug-
gested. These should be used when only one of the major plant nutrients is
r equir e d or if there is no mixed fertilizer that will approximately meet the -
nutrient requirements. However, when the nutrient requirements can be met
by using a mixed fertilizer, the recommendations should be kept within one of ‘
the suggested ratios. The decision as to whether mixed fertilizers or straight
materials are used is often a matter of economics and should beleftwith the
farmer.
V INFORMATION IS GIVEN FOR SAMPLES WHERE THE WORDS "SEE NOTE"
IS SHOWN AS FOLLOWS:
Note 1. See Table 5 for results of analyses of boron in fertilizer. V
Note 2. See Table 6 for results of analyses of pesticides in fertilizer. n
Note 3. Fertilizer represented by this sample returned to plant.
Note 4. Purchaser received refund based upon this analysis.
Note 5. Reworked.
Note 6. Refund based upon this analysis made to charity.
