A nutrient management strategy is one of these task that can be performed in the upcoming weeks. When purchasing chemical fertiliser next season, you must ensure that you are in compliance with the nitrates regulations since the fertiliser registration is currently operational. Ensure that every field has a current soil analysis report if not, make plans to get any untested fields tested right away. The nutrient management plan will be based on these soil tests, which will also establish the type and quantity of fertiliser you can purchase. Keep in mind that your fertiliser P allowance is zero if you do not have a current soil test. Similarly, you simply cannot risk applying organic manures unless you can determine the balance that chemical fertilisers should provide. Drummonds are offering a wide range of testing to suit the farmers needs along with numerous products to help tailor the needs to the soils health. One of these products include AgriPhos.
AgriPhos, an innovative PK fertiliser is a game changer in sustainable agriculture. Derived from renewable sources, it contains essential nutrients including Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K), Sulphur, Magnesium, Calcium, and Sodium, plus vital trace elements.
