Q.7 Does frost damage recently applied fertilizers?

A. Frost does no damage to recently applied fertilizer. Growth conditions will obviously be very poor during frosty weather and there will be little or no uptake of fertilizer but the fertilizer nutrients will retain their potency for when growth conditions improve. Fertilizer should not be applied to frozen fields due to the risk of run off losses when the thaw sets in.
