Manures, Composts, and Alternative Fertilizers: Benefits to Potato Production

From a chemical and biological standpoint, we will use current research to dig into the established agronomic benefits. From an economic perspective, we will cover a current comparative cost analysis to see how these materials compare to traditional fertilizers.
