The easement agreements <br /> are located in the Appendix. Approximately half of the acreage is rotated in silage corn and <br /> winter oats, with the other half of the cropland planted in alfalfa: <br /> Corn silage= 250 lbs N/Ac x 222 Ac= 55,500 lbs N required <br /> Oats= 115 lbs N/Ac x 222 Ac= 25,530 lbs N required <br /> Alfalfa= 480 lbs N/Ac x 222 Ac= 106,560 lbs N required <br /> TOTAL 187,590 lbs N required <br /> Therefore, a theoretical.nitrogen deficit of 187,590 lbs - 112,495 lbs.
