Summary
Phosphorus can be a complex beast, particularly when coupled with managing alkaline black flats and calcerous soils found in the Limestone Coast. In direct response to growers keen to learn more on how to leverage its potential, Adam Hancock and the team established a trial site at Bool Lagoon comparing novel phosphorus treatment ideas and strategies. How does liquid application compare with granular? Broadcasting or deep banding? What are the key barriers to uptake, particularly in the face of seasonal challenges? With the mantra of 'replace what you remove', Adam unpacks how using yield maps and soil variability data to tailor phosphorus replacement rates can improve long-term nutrient management and paddock performance.
