Yes. We have more than 3000 blended fertilisers on record and counting. Talk to us about your specific nitrogen (N), phosphorous (P), potassium (K) and sulfur (S) soil needs and we will create a tailored nutrient budget and tracking system.
Our fertiliser spreaders are independently tested and Fertcare-accredited under the Accu-Spread program. This process ensures we apply the fertiliser at the correct rate evenly across the paddock. We also have nutrient tracking technology in each spreader that tracks which paddocks are spread and what nutrient is applied. A report can be emailed to the customer on completion of the spreading showing a coverage map of the farm.
Ag urea is treated with a urease inhibitor that reduces the nitrogen lost through volatilisation. If straight urea is applied to the paddock and you do not receive adequate rainfall there will be significant nitrogen (N) losses, resulting in less pasture grown. Trial results show using ag urea significantly increases dry matter production and reduces the cost of dry matter grown, compared with conventional urea.
Soil conditioners, like gypsum and agricultural lime are best used before you apply liquid, granular or blended fertilisers. Optimum soil health is an important part of healthy and productive crop growth.
The cheapest form of dry matter is your home-grown fodder. With help from our expert farm mapping services and agronomist team, we can maximise your pasture production and fine-tune your fertiliser system to increase returns.
