Tissue Jul 17: Results in hand

Open jobs 1 total

Hull split spray #3: Aug 4 To do

Agronomist note: Weeds are mostly burned down, with a few patches of pigweed still alive; no treatment is needed right now. Mite pressure is light to moderate throughout. Trap counts are climbing, so another navel orangeworm spray looks likely in two to three weeks. Alternaria and red leaf blotch are present, and the hull-split spray should knock them back.

Action needed

Foliar spray at hull split
Second navel orangeworm spray, 2-3 week follow-up

Copper (Cu)	8.6 ppm	8–20	OK

Low below the target for this crop and timingOK in rangeHigh above the target

What this says: Nitrogen, sulfur, zinc and manganese are below target for this stage, and chloride is just over the limit. Everything else is in range. The recommendation shows what we’d do about it and what it costs per acre.

Calcium and magnesium targets come from the soil’s exchange capacity.The dark tick on each bar marks the ideal.Gap is what’s needed (+) or in excess (−).

What this says: Potassium, phosphorus, sulfur, boron and zinc read low in the soil; sodium, iron, manganese and copper read high. We read soil against the leaf results before acting, which is why the recommendation doesn’t treat every flag.

Recommendation

Prepared by: Sample Agronomist

Apply by: Nov 25

Method: Dry, banded in the herbicide strip

Fall nutrition recommendation

Sample Ranch – Block 7 · Almonds · 35 ac · Based on leaf tissue (Jul 17) and soil analysis (Aug 22)

What	The why	Rate	Timing	Cost per acre
Potassium sulfateSoil, dry	Soil potassium is at 83% of ideal and sulfur at 40%. This one product supplies both.	200 lb/ac	After harvest, banded in the herbicide strip	$72.5
Zinc sulfateSoil, dry	Soil zinc is at 42% of ideal, and leaf zinc is 20 ppm against a 30–70 target.	35 lb/ac	After harvest, same trip as the potassium	$26.5
Manganese sulfateFoliar	Leaf manganese is 39 ppm against a 50–180 target.	5 lb/ac	With the next foliar pass	$3.0
Dry spreadingApplication	One trip covers the potassium and the zinc.	1 pass	Same trip	$8.0
Total per acre. Block 7 (35 ac): $3,850				$110.0

Also noted, no cost here

Nitrogen is low in the leaf (2.1% against 2.4–2.7%). It’s handled in the spring liquid program in the plan.
Phosphorus and boron read low in the soil but sit in range in the leaf, so nothing goes on this fall. We recheck with the next tissue sample.
Calcium is low in pounds but on target as a share of the soil’s exchange capacity, so no amendment.
Sodium and chloride run high. We watch them through the irrigation water results rather than add anything.

Sample figures for illustration, not a quote. A real recommendation is priced when it’s written, from any supplier, and the recommendation doesn’t change with where you buy.

Stage	Planned work	Per acre
Post-harvest November	Fall nutrition, per the recommendation	$110.0
Dormant December	Preemergent herbicide pass	$63.5
Pink bud February	Foliar nutrition at delayed dormancy	$33.5
Bloom March	Bloom fungicide with foliar nutrients	$47.5
Spring March–April	Liquid fertility program	$96.5
Spring May	Spring protection spray	$50.5
Early summer June	Weed control and ant bait	$48.0
Hull split July–August	Three timed hull-split sprays and a summer weed pass	$160.5
Total per acre. Block 7 (35 ac): $21,350		$610.0

How it changes: This is the plan before the season starts. When conditions change, a stage moves or a pass is added or dropped, and the updated plan and budget come back to you in writing.

Block 7Almonds · 35 ac

11Passes

$176.5Fertility per acre

$281.0Crop protection per acre

$457.5Total per acre

What we did. Preemergent, pink bud foliar, bloom fungicide, a spring liquid fertility pass, a spring protection spray, two weed passes, ant bait and three hull-split sprays.

What we’d change. Leaf nitrogen, zinc and manganese ran low in July. Move the first nitrogen pass up two weeks and add zinc and manganese to the bloom foliar. Keep the fungicide at the first hull-split spray, where alternaria was already moderate.

$503.5Total per acre

What we did. Preemergent in the herbicide strip, early bloom and full-bloom sprays, a spring plant bug and mummy-nut foliar, two weed passes, ant bait and two hull-split sprays.

What we’d change. The spring insect pass was the biggest single cost. Count mummy nuts in winter so that pass is sized to the actual load.

What we did. Pink bud foliar, spring protection, four monthly liquid fertility passes, weed control, ant bait and two hull-split sprays.

What we’d change. Liquid fertility was the largest line on the ranch. Tie each month’s rate to the latest leaf result instead of running a flat schedule.
