DURING DEPARTURE FROM A 2100 FT RUNWAY THE PILOT REALIZED THE PLANE WAS OVERLOADED FOR THE CONDITIONS. HE OPENED THE DUMP GATE ABOUT 100 FT FROM THE END OF THE RUNWAY. HOWEVER HE REPORTED THAT LUMPS OF FERTILIZER IN THE BOTTOM OF THE HOPPER PREVENTED THE LOAD FROM DUMPING. THE PILOT WAS UNABLE TO CLEAR A ROW OF HEDGE TREES ABOUT 350 FT FROM THE END OF THE RUNWAY.
