Appendix 096-420-C - Calculations for Septage Land Application

FOR ALL SITES YOU MUST FIRST DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF NITROGEN REQUIRED

EXAMPLE: Septage

Crop to be grown: Hay (two crops SPLIT APPLICATION)

Nitrogen Required: 140 pounds per acre per year

On well-drained soils you are allowed to apply 380 gallons of septage per one pound of nitrogen required.

140 pounds N x 380 gallons septage = 53,200 gallons per acre per year

On excessively-drained soils you are allowed to apply 190 gallons of septage per one pound of nitrogen required.

140 pounds N x 190 gallons septage = 26.600 gallons per acre per year
