An agronomist recommends to his farmer client the following nutrient amounts for his cornfield. Based on soil test results and yield goal, he recommends the farmer apply a total of 196 lbs N/acre; 80 lbs P2O5/acre; and 20 lbs sulfur/acre. The farmer prefers to always apply a 10-34-0 (11.65 lbs/gal) liquid starter fertilizer at 5 gal/acre in-furrow at planting. He will apply an 11-52-0 dry fertilizer prior to planting to provide the remaining phosphorus not included in his starter application. He also decides to apply all his sulfur needs with his pre-plant herbicide using 21-0-0-24S liquid (11.0 lbs/gal). His remaining nitrogen needs will be side-side dressed using a liquid 32-0-0 (11.06 lbs/gal). How much of each fertilizer below is needed to provide the nutrient rates recommended by his agronomist?

_______________ gal/acre 32-0-0
