Normally notil milo into existing milo stalks. Put on about half of my N with the planter the rest I have applied with the chemical. Urea is a cheaper option than the liquid, it appears, locally, at our local coop. I have some free time this winter, and could apply the urea myself with a dry spreader. With no snow cover, is this a viable option? This is in Southern Kansas. Ground is frozen, and in this case, how long until the urea goes into the ground? Any comments, will be appreciated.

My old far chemicals reference handbook says urea left on the surface converts to ammonia and evaporates in days. That it must be worked in immediately or its wasted.
