basis]
(2) Ammonia nitrogen: [provide
concentration in per cent or milligram per kilogram, dry weight
basis]
(3) Total phosphorous: [provide
concentration in per cent or milligram per kilogram, dry weight
basis]

basis]
(2) Phosphate: [provide application
rate in pounds per acre or kilogram per hectare, dry-weight
basis]
(3) Potash: [provide application
rate in pounds per acre or kilogram per hectare, dry-weight
