NGN - N banking strategies to manage variable and unpredictable nitrogen demand in the MRZ of the southern region

The aim of this trial is to compare a range of ‘N banking targets’  to ‘N crop demand’ driven N application strategies in terms of their impact on productivity (yield, protein), profitability (gross margin, risk) and sustainability (soil organic matter, carbon footprint,  losses) in diverse soil types in the MRZ.
