Aims
To compare Crystal Green with traditional DAP and urea applications alone and in combination.
Key messages
In the first year of trials (2012) a 75 kg/ha rate of Crystal Green significantly increased lentil yield by 18% compared to the nil (100%) and DAP treatments.
In the second year of trials no carry-over effect of Crystal Green or DAP was observed on wheat grain yield.
