Different sowing and topdressing phosphorus options in wheat locations
Aims

To evaluate phosphorus efficiencies of various different phosphate fertilisers on wheat.

Key messages
  • There were adequate levels of phosphorus in the soil profile, but we still saw a response to phosphorus fertiliser.
  • There were some differences within different products at the 12 kg P rate - with sulfur enhances products delivering a better outcome.
  • Other additive to phosphorus fertilisers delivered no additional benefits.
