Hey there growers, today I'm diving into something that could revolutionise your crop profit, we're talking about Foliar nutrition trials and impressive results with complex Foli-N and Mega-fos on winter OSR.
First up the aim, to see how these foliar applied products could boost yield. The NIAB trials were set on a deep clay loam soil in Calow Herfordshire, and several treatments were tested independently.
Let's break it down. Treatment 1 with Mega-Fos alone showed a yield increase to 4.88 tons per hectare, beating the controls yield of 4.48 tons per hectare, and treatment 4 combined Mega-Fos and Foli-N pushing the yield to 4.83 tons per hectare, Increasing profit margins.
Now you might be thinking is it worth the investment, absolutely.
Treatment 1 returned an extra £116.48p per hectare, and treatment for while a bit pricier at £54.25p, still brought in £67.98p more per hectare, not too shabby right, but wait there's more.
Moving to winter wheat trials, the SFS nutrition program increased yields by 440 kg a hectare and, reduced fungicide usage. That's an added £44. 82p per hectare in profit, and for spring barley, the combination of Foli-N and Mega-fos outperformed all adding a whopping £90 per hectare to your pocket.
Biological foliar nutrition isn't just a one-off wonder, it's a game changer. improving yields, reducing costs and boosting profits across various crops. So, why not give us a call. Your farm could be the next success story.
