Phosphorus - what to do in 2007? locations
Aims

To answer the question 'How much P should I apply in 2007?'

Key messages
  • Phosphorus is an essential nutrient for plant development which cannot be effectively applied post sowing. Because of this it is imperative that decisions on its application are made now.
  • P should be applied at rates necessary achieve the yields being targeted in a given paddock for a given year.
  • Information to assist you in determining how much P is in your soil includes fertiliser history, removal through production previous yields, soil tests and paddock history.
