Surely if you have low P&K indices you'll want and NPK blend or compound, probably with sulphur in as well. you really need to know what indices your P&K are so that you can apply a maintenance or a building up application. how far are your spreading? a good spreader up to 24m you'll be ok with blends, anymore than 24m and I would want a compound product really.
