BEST TM21 fertiliser trialThe experience from trial work with TM21 in Canada and Vietnam has been that farmers have been able to reduce some of their inputs as well as maintain or increase their yield. BEST Australia set up a long-term trial at the Liebe Group Long Term Trial Site (LTRS) comparing fertiliser rates at three different input levels. This trial will continue over the next few years. During that time, BEST will be evaluating the trial at LTRS to show that fertiliser efficiency increases by using TM21 in Austr |

Bioprime: Impact on Yield, Soil Carbon Accumulation and Nitrogen UseTrials from over four years are examining different rates and timing of application of Bioprime, a liquid soil amendment which changes soil microbiology. The aim is to relate measured plant growth and yield improvement to changes in microbial populations in the soil around roots, and to show how these changes and different ways of applying nitrogen (N) impact on soil carbon accumulation. |
