Energy Estimator for Nitrogen is the second of several tools from Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS)developed to increase energy awareness in agriculture. This NRCS energy consumption tool enables you to calculate the cost of nitrogen product use on your farm or ranch. NRCS agronomists have developed these cost estimates based on nitrogen fertilizer management methods for the predominant crops in your state. This tool does not provide field-specific recommendations. It evaluates options based on user input. Click on the link for additional information on fertilizer materials.
