Is there a difference between the soil grade kelp meal compared to the feed grade kelp meal? My Agway has feed grade kelp for $19 for 50#. Was hoping this would work for my kelp application in the spring.

Make sure you check for any added ingredients in any of the "meals" that you are buying for soil amendments.

Some "feed grade" products may contain salt, animal fats or bi-products, etc. that are not what you want in soil amendments.

Although I have never really heard "soil grade" used as a name for these meals.

as dan said --salt and addtives are the thing you dont want--should be 100% ground Alfalfa hay --meal or pellets you can use alfalfa bales hay --shred it to small pieces--
