BioAgPhos Fertilisers: the perfect solution for ALL conditions
With the record-breaking wet conditions in 2022 and the elevated cost of fertilisers, matching the right product type and amount to meet your soil fertility and productivity needs this summer is more important than ever.
We LOVE rain, but 2022 …?!
The 2023 farming year is set to bring more challenges to farmers. In addition to the current challenges of high costs of inputs, some sectors have been impacted by reduced yields due to weather or low commodity prices, and soggy soils.
More pasture with less inputs – true!
If someone told you they were growing more pasture using no synthetic inputs, and saving a fortune in the process, would you believe them?
Nutrient Mobility explained
The term ‘nutrient mobility’ refers to characteristics of macro and micronutrients within the soil and plant. Nutrients which are important for plant growth vary in their ability to move within the soil and plant. It is their mobility that determines their plant availability as well as their loss due to leaching or runoff.
Alleviating Soil Toxicity
No matter if it is issues that have appeared with the recent flooding events or pursuing old issues present for some time, heavy metals toxicity and salinity/sodicity can be alleviated or rectified by rebuilding soil fertility and nutrient equilibrium, improving organic/soil carbon content, and soil health.

‘Unprecedented’ is the new norm
Talking to farmers and advisers there are several common topics everyone wants to discuss: unprecedented farm input costs; where are prices going; and when will costs be coming down?
Challenge accepted: Improving organic grape production
A Riverina wine producer has been seeking ways to improve their crop of organically grown grapes.
Podcasts on Soil Health
50 years of soil biological health research has been compacted and simplified into a handy new app called SOIL HEALTH to help farmers better understand the complexities of soils.
Switching it up, improves quality and production
Beef farmer Warren Watt’s family have been fattening cattle at Tomerong on the picturesque NSW South Coast for six decades. In recent times, he’s wanted to make a change to a more sustainable approach to his land, with little or no chemical use that has only ever given him short-lived results.
Significant New Zealand trial results
Natural fertiliser proving highly effective in low rainfall zones.

When Less is Best – for your crops and your hip-pocket

Nutrient Management Planning – Dairy focus
The dairy industry is amongst the highest nutrient fluxes (inflows and outflows) for any agricultural production system and therefore has relatively low nutrient use efficiencies. The ongoing intensification of the industry also means these nutrient fluxes are continuing to increase per hectare, increasing both the reliance on imported feed and Nitrogen fertiliser use.
