Nonprofit myths: Many don't pay property taxes -- but for many good reasons. There has been a great deal of conversation recently regarding nonprofit organizations and property taxes. Much has been written regarding the multitude of benefits that our best regional nonprofits add to our community.
Currently, price differences between the nitrogen fertilizers are less than the historical spreads. On March 31, prices were $.37 per pound for ammonia, $.41 for urea, and $.47 for liquid N. Currently, urea has a $.04 higher price than anhydrous ammonia, compared to a $.09 historical average.
One hundred units of N from ammonium sulfate requires 523 pounds of lime to neutralize the acidity so the actual cost is $90.85 per acre. Knowing this, it makes sense that ammonium nitrate is the cheaper source of nitrogen although it has a higher cost per ton.y converting the cost of fertilizer to dollars per unit of N, we can more accurately compare the sources and the following will be true: â¢ Ammonium nitrate (34-percent N) â $450 per ton = $0.66 per unit of N or $66 per acre. â¢ Liquid N-Sol (32-percent N) â $450 per ton = $0.70 per unit of N or $70 per acre.
