While it is an early planting season, for most it has been a slow start.
However, that is not a concern for fertilizer applicators.
The President of the Illinois Fertilizer and Chemical Association told Brownfield Ag News that they had a tremendous fall season, so most retailers are still ahead of the game heading into planting.
Ag cooperative, GROWMARK, agrees and adds that the mild winter also lent a helping hand.
As of now, both fertilizer and chemical inventories are adequate.
