Grow the future | Forage maize foliar nutrition | Farmers watching maize harvest

Paying more attention to forage maize nutrition pays off

Paying more attention to forage maize foliar nutrition, particularly phosphate and zinc will improve crop establishment and early growth resulting in higher yield and better quality forage.

Better nutrition improves potato yield and quality

Making sure your potatoes are fully supplied with all the nutrients they require is the best way to improve crop yield and tuber quality

Grow the future | Soil testing and tissue analysis

Soil and leaf testing avoids wasting money on fertilisers

The best way to avoid wasting money on fertiliser is through soil testing and tissue analysis and then understanding what the results mean.

Grow the future | Grassland selenium fertilisers | Farmer inspecting grass

Preventing selenium deficiency avoids reduced productivity

Grazing animals have a requirement for selenium so it is important sufficient is present in the grass to meet the animals' needs to prevent selenium deficiency problems.
