sulphur

Anyone doing it, makes a big difference but does it justify the cost?

Frost on the ground in parts this morning and we have 45 acres of maize going in today. I'll let you know in a fortnight wether it was the right call. Hope to get a photo up later.

Hi just been pricing fert after a wet miserable lambing ... normally buy 25.5.5.... 20.8.11 was mentioned in conversation, never used it and it'd obviosly higher in p an k ....on a mixed livestock farm that makes round baled hay and silage and puts muck on thru winter would a 20,8,11 be a good...

Written by Brian McDonnell from Agriland Although there are still many cows in the shed, and grazing has not fully taken off yet, it’s now time for silage preparation to begin. The harvesting of first cut silage will hopefully be taking place on most farms in early to mid-May if conditions...
