In order to calculate a fertilizer application rate, you will need: (1) the N-P2O5-K2O content of the material from the package label, (2) your target rate (normally from a soil test), (3) the total area you will be applying to, and (4) the density of the material if a liquid fertilizer is to be used.

∙ 12y agoOne ton of granular fertilizer is applied to one acre.
Specifically, the amount can be adjusted by circumstance. For example, age of plants, environmental stresses and soil conditions may require more or less. Particularly challenging conditions such as depleted soils and prolonged drought may require greater amounts of nutrient ingredients. They may result in twice the tonnage in fertilizer applications.

If you need 35 pounds of phosphorus and 60 pounds of potassium per acre how much 0-11-52 fertilizer do you apply per acre?
The 0-11-52 means 0% Nitrogen (N), 11% Phosphorous (P) and 52 Potassium (K). The ratio of P to K that you need is 35/60 or ~ 1/2, but the P to K ratio of your "fertilizer" is 11/52 or ~ 1/5. You should get a fertilizer with a ratio more in line with what you need or expect to have to apply multiple fertilizers. Here is how you work out how much to apply per acre for each nutrient. Using Potassium as an example lbs to apply per acre = <lbs nutrient required per acre> / <% nutrient> lbs K to apply per acre = 60 / 0.52 ~ 120 lbs But like I said you would not get the correct amount of P with this fertilizer.
