Lebanon Turf

Rivendell Distribution is a trusted name among turf fertilizer suppliers, offering high-quality fertilizers that keep the grass healthy, green, and strong. These products provide the nutrients needed for deep roots and lasting color.

Some of the most popular choices include Rivendell’s Own with Organics and Nature Safe UFlex 21-3-7. Both improve soil health with Sulfur and Iron, creating a solid foundation for lush turf.

For a cost-effective alternative to fast-release fertilizers, Lebanon Turf fertilizers feed lawns over time, reducing the need for constant reapplication. They’re great for golf courses, sports fields, and residential lawns, keeping turf in top shape all season.

The cost of fertilizing an acre depends on several factors like fertilizer type, crop selection, mowing habits, and regional conditions such as rainfall. Prices can vary based on what you’re growing, how often you fertilize, and the quality of the fertilizer you choose.

• Fertilizing crops like corn typically costs between $217 and $289 per acre, depending on the type of fertilizer and how it’s applied. Things like soil quality, crop type, and weather can also affect the final cost.
• If you hire professionals to handle your lawn, the cost ranges from $436 to $1,742 per acre. This usually breaks down to around $0.01 to $0.04 per square foot for larger areas like ½-acre lawns. For smaller lawns, around 5,000 square feet, the cost can be higher per square foot, typically between $0.02 and $0.07.

If you prefer DIY lawn care, it’s often more budget-friendly. Based on a spread rate of 5-8 pounds per 1,000 sq. ft., you’ll need around 4 to 9 bags of fertilizer (with bag sizes ranging from 40 to 50 pounds) to cover an entire acre. The exact number of bags depends on the fertilizer’s application rate and bag weight.

Fertilizer prices can shift due to market conditions and soil requirements, so it’s always smart to purchase a product that fits your lawn’s specific needs.

The most commonly used fertilizer by farmers is Agfinity Pasture Fertilizer (38-12-0). It’s a top choice because it has a high nitrogen content, is cost-effective, and helps boost crop yields. Many fertilizer suppliers offer nitrogen-based fertilizers like this, making them widely available for agricultural use.

Nitrogen is essential for plant growth, and urea is one of the most popular fertilizers for crops like corn, wheat, and rice. Farmers prefer it because it’s easy to apply and quickly absorbed by plants, leading to stronger, healthier growth.

For commercial farms and agricultural businesses, large-scale fertilization solutions are key to keeping fields productive. Agfinity Pasture Fertilizer and other nitrogen-rich options remain staples in modern farming, helping maximize harvests and maintain soil health.

There are many reasons why organic manure is preferred over synthetic fertilizers. It improves moisture retention, organic content, and soil structure without altering pH levels. Unlike chemical fertilizers, it feeds the soil naturally, creating long-term benefits for plant health.

Many turf management services and professional landscapers recommend organic manure as a supplement to synthetic fertilizers. It provides essential nutrients from animal matter, compost, and crop residues, helping soil stay rich in microorganisms that support plant growth.

Applying organic manure in spring or summer is especially effective. When timed with rainfall and proper spreader settings, it maximizes absorption. For those looking for a cost-effective alternative, organic manure offers a budget-friendly, sustainable solution for residential lawns, sports fields, and large-scale agriculture.

Ammonium sulfate is the most acidifying fertilizer commonly used in turf management to control soil pH levels. When it breaks down, it releases hydrogen ions, which lower the soil’s pH through oxidation-reduction reactions.

Managing acidic soil and applying ammonium sulfate-based fertilizers can be labor-intensive, as it requires careful monitoring to prevent over-acidification. However, it is an effective way to maintain healthy grass and plant growth, especially in areas with naturally acidic soils.

Rivendell carries Woodace A.C.R.E. 12-3-6, a specialized product in turf supply inventories. It is formulated for Azaleas, Conifers, Rhododendrons, and Evergreens that thrive in acidic soil. It also helps in areas where micronutrient availability is limited by high soil pH. This fertilizer supports a slightly acidic soil balance, which is ideal for most evergreens and foundation plants.
