 Commercial Fertilizer in Kentucky, Spring Season 1954
This bulletin contains analyses of official samples of commercial fertilizers offered for
sale in Kentucky between January 1, 1954 and June 30, 1954.
ln comparison with previous bulletins, Tables 1, Z and 3 of this bulletin are somewhat
more condensed. The names of the manufacturers, for example, are abbreviated. Also
the name of the dealer is indicated but the town has been omitted. It is hoped, however,
that sufficient information is given to indicate clearly the company, the fertilizer plant,
and the dealer responsible for every sample. The full names and addresses of all com-
panies represented by samples in this report are given on Page 4 and 5. Anyone desiring
the full address of a dealer from whose warehouse a sample was taken may secure this
information by writing to the Department of Feed and Fertilizer.
. EXPLANATION OF TABLES
The information given should be useful to farmers, agricultural workers, and company
representatives to determine how closely a given manufacturer is meeting the chemical
guarantee printed on the bag for all or specific fertilizers. This may be done by com -
paring the guarantee shown at the beginning of each listing of sample 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 analysis of samples is in the per-
cent of relative value found, shown in the extreme right—hand column. The following ex-
amples illustrate how this relative value is calculated:
Sample #4981, reported on Page 13, manufactured by Bluegrass Plant Foods, Inc.,
of Danville, Kentucky, represented a shipment of 5-10-15 Sulfate. This sample was
guaranteed to contain 5 units of nitrogen, l0 units of available phosphoric acid, and
15 units of potash. Factors for computing the relative values of these plant foods
are: l for potash, Z for available phosphoric acid and 3 for nitrogen. Thus the com-
bined guaranteed value of the product represented by this sample is calculated:
5.0 units of Nitrogen X 3 ; 15.0
10. 0 units of Available Phosphoric Acid X 2 : Z0 .0
15.0 units of Potash X 1 s 15.0
Total computed guaranteed value 50.0
The same procedure is followed for "found values". The analyzed sample in this example
was found to contain 5.1 units of nitrogen, 10.2 units of available phosphoric acid and 15.1
units of potash. The relative found value of Sample #4981 is computed:
5.1 units of Nitrogen X 3 : 15.3
10.2 units of Available Phosphoric Acid X 2 s Z0. 4
15,1 units of Potash X 1 = 15.1
Total computed value of Sample #4981 50. 8
50.8 (computed value of sample) divided by 50. 0 (computed guaranteed value) times
‘ 100 (to arrive at percentage) gives 101. 6 as the percent of relative value found.
