I went away from NH3 years ago because of safety issues. I side dress with 28% liquid nit.when corn is 10+" tall useing a cultivator.
I carry tanks on the tractor and pump it behind the shovel closest to the row and the next shovel covers it. Using this method I can get same yield results with 100 units of nit as 160 units of preplant nit. I have proven this several times with side by side test. Yes it cost to cultivate but I save on weed spray as well. The local coops also rent equipment to apply 28% nit.as well. I use an eight row 36" cultvator so I can run about 120 acres a day.

Just my two cents worth.
