We used it last year and had much better yield than this year, but can't say whether it was the Oilseed Extra for sure. Last year it kept the plant greener and going for longer I think.

We did a 20ha field in 2011 of Catana.

10ha without did 6t/ha

10ha with extra Nufol (N without the extra sweepings up) did 7t/ha.

That's a 1t/ha improvement. I've used foliar N ever since at 40kg N equivalent, though foliar N not Oilseed Extra).

Payback has been quite high for me

Our full biomass hybrids, Harper & Extrovert have averaged about 4.8t/ha this year, better than semi-dwarfs. 180kg/ha spring dose fb 50kgN as farm mix N20 later than planned at petals dropped due to poor weather & wheat requirements. It would appear these are about 0.3-0.5t/ha above yields locally to us. We have a weighbridge. It works- done it before & will keep it up if the crop is good. Didn't bother with the stuff that was under the Humber in December- mind you, that will do about 3T/ha- but it will screw our average.

What is foliar N exactly? Tempted to try a watered own version of my 32N 9SO3.

I asked about this in another thread, most answered that as that is AN and foliar N is urea, the AN will scorch the OSR, enough people said it to change my mind and I’ve bottled out, I was going to put my 26n5s into a watery mix.
