I've had some grain analysis done and Omex Bio 20 seems like it would address all the areas which the results have raised.
Has anyone any experience with the product ?
Seems expensive, are there any similar products available ?

1). What did the analysis results show?
2). How did your crops yield (compared to previous years) and what are your yield expectations?

Think to yourself if I put 5 l / ha of bio 20 on it equals half a millilitre per sq metre . Work of miracles I’d say . Just by some more fert to start with and do a proper job from the beginning

Here are my results.
Yields are fine, but there is always room for improvement.
Thought Bio 20 would address all deficiencies.

It looks like the macronutrients (ex. mag) are pretty good to me. N/S ratios decent. Nitrogen % good (although arguably 0.1% higher than RB209 suggests for a feed wheat... assuming you grow for feed). Not sure if you can tell much about micronutrients from grain analysis.

I'm no expert in interpreting grain analysis results (in fact first time I have seen one!) but I wouldn't pay too much attention to the majority of the report.

What data does the lab base their low-normal categorising on?

In this instance I would agree with @Goffer...

Have you got a sample of untreated grain you send for analysis as a comparison? Try not to get the untreated/treated samples mixed up ;) :)

Grain analysis is a bit historical isn't it? A vague guide for macronutrients but micronutrient availability is so variable within a season you can't say the current crop will have the same shortages as last year's crop.

It's a bit like plant tissue testing, just a snap shot of those circumstances. There might be a trend from regular testing but no guarantee of a response from remedial tonics.
