- Intervention effect Potassium fertilization maintained alfalfa stand density on both soils.
- Intervention effect The lowest added K rate caused severe stand loss on Decatur soil by year two.
- Intervention effect K application increased alfalfa yield.
- Intervention effect Maximum yields occurred at soil test recommended K rates.
- Intervention effect K application increased tissue K concentration.
- Intervention effect K application decreased tissue Mg concentration.
- Intervention effect K application little effect tissue N concentration.
- Intervention effect Split K application did not consistently increase forage production.
- Observation Little K moved below 25 cm in either soil at repeated application rates.
