To look at the potential benefits of applying additional nutrients as foliar sprays during the season, and we also investigated an alternative nutrient product called Hibrix.
Key messages

The alternative nutrient product, Hibrix, had no significant yield effect on wheat and barley and depressed the yield of canola and lentils
