About this file

This document appears to be a set of recommendations for soil level maintenance agreed upon between the Office of Land Management (OLM) and the Office of Resource Conservation (ORC). The recommendations include target levels for various crops such as corn, beans, wheat, milo, sunflowers, and buckwheat, as well as recommended application rates for various fertilizers including DAP, potash, and urea. The goal is to establish these maintenance levels so that site superintendents can apply them annually after taking soil samples and following proper procurement procedures. The document also notes that lime may need to be added to adjust the pH based on the soil sample analysis.

The document does not provide any information about a state or local contract opportunity. It appears to be an internal document outlining recommended soil maintenance practices and levels for the agencies involved.

After our discussion of Soil Levels held on March 7, 2017, the following recommendations were agreed upon between OLM and ORC:

80 Bushel Corn
30 Bushel Beans
45 Bushel Wheat
50 Bushel Milo
500 Pound Sunflower
1000 Pound Buckwheat
75# DAP
50# DAP
90# DAP
52# DAP

60# Potash
30# Potash

40# Potash

70# Urea

90# Urea
65# Urea
60# Urea
34# Urea

Our goal should be to establish these levels so Site Superintendents, after taking soil samples, can apply these maintenance levels annually at their discretion after following the proper procurement procedures. Also please note that after the soil samples have been analyzed, it may be necessary to add Lime to adjust the pH.
