Spring arable nutrition of wheat and other winter crops

Once winter cereals begin spring regrowth then that momentum needs to be maintained by making sure all the required nutrients are available when the crop needs them.

Topics covered include

  • Thoughts on soil nitrogen status and its impact on spring growth
  • Planning spring nitrogen according to different plant populations in cereals
  • Influence of the oilseed canopy on nitrogen recommendations
  • An update on Spring P&K
  • Importance of early micronutrients for energising early growth and grain number manipulation

Available as an on-demand recording

The live webinar took place on Tuesday 2nd February 2021 but don't worry if missed it as the webinar is still available on-demand to watch as a recording.
