A southeast Nebraska attested that drought and fertilizer availability were factors in the uncertainty of next year’s crop. He has struggled to book fertilizer and wondered if it could be applied in the spring or whether he will be able to get his hands on fertilizer by then. The farmer also mentioned that there was nothing in the soil for the anhydrous to bind to, so it will simply evaporate.
