limited use

don’t buy its not worth it

Don't download

Unless you want to do a bunch of conversions don't download this app. Needs to use P2O5 and K20 for desired blend not elemental P and K. No one in the Ag industry uses elemental to calculate their needs since those forms are not found in Fertilizer. Most farmers don't even realize there is a conversion factor involved. Waste of money, made by amateurs who obviously don't work in the Ag industry.

Works well, very handy

It is a great planning tool. As a seed co. agronomist it helps give info to my customers, our local fertilizer suppliers are not well versed in liquid blends. This app saves me countless phone calls.
Please add a email function on calculation results page for this app.
I hope the delevoper reads this!!!
