Loyd County Agent. An abundant supply of nitrogen is required in each plant for growth. Even the green color of grass is a nitrogen compound. The nitrogen content of grass is highest in the young, tender parts such as shoot and root tips. This nitrogen present largely as protein is constantly being changed. Grass takes up the most nitrogen during active growth. There must be a continuous release of nitrogen from the soil to produce a steady rate of production throughout the season. Adequate nitrogen throughout the season is more important for pas ture grass than for row crops. Pas ture p’ants are not allowed to reach maturity so their need for nitrogen BETTER LIVI^ vi TREES I » L • WOOD WATER RECREATION WILDLIFE SAVANNAH PLANT /A ^o® YOUR Forest industries provide - nearly 2 million jobs.

Nitrogen will increase the protein content of grass, and protein is the costly item in bought feed. Protein can be grown with nitrogen cheap er than it can be purchased in a bag. Nitrogen for high yields is one of the aims of the Big M Pasture Pro gram — high yields expressed in terms of hay or grazing and also in terms of protein and total digestible nutrients produced.
