2020 STOKES BAY SMALL PLOT FERTILISER TRIAL locations
Aims

The BioAg fertiliser trial was established in 2019. The trial has 6 treatments with 4 replications and compares various BioAg products and rates against an annual application of single super.

Key messages

• There was no significant difference on a dry matter basis between all fertilizer products. Nor was there an effect of the cumulative amount over the four harvest times.
• There was high variability across the site owing to the effect of the January bushfire.
• There was a hint in the data that plots receiving treatment D (single super) were the least productive at both the Parndana and the Stokes Bay trials.
