MONITORIN NITORING G CROP ROP NUTRITION TRITION – OVERVIEW: VERVIEW:

  • SOIL analysis tells about availability

−But is not fully reliable −Needs cross-checking

  • LEAF analysis indicates immediate crop status

−Can support corrective sprays etc. −Problematic to interpret … weather effects … ‘norms’ change as crops age −Uncertain thresholds / critical values

  • GRAIN analysis tells about ultimate nutrient capture

−Most accurate, precise & easy −Embraces soil supply, rooting, foliar sprays and any soil moisture issues −NEW .. so Significant value in sharing results … either informally,

.. or with organised BENCHMARKING

Nutrient Management for 2020/21

  • Dr. Sajjad Awan

Resource Management Scientist, AHDB

slide-20
SLIDE 20

Maximise the benefits of nutrient management plan by cutting losses

  • Right Source: AN, Urea, DAP, TSP
  • Right Rate: Match the crop requirement;
  • Accuracy of yield prediction is crucial
  • Right Time: Autumn vs Spring applications
  • Right Place: broadcast vs incorporated/injected

For accurate and precise nutrient management, attention to detail is essential The ‘4R’ rule for nutrient management:

Future development of RB209

Currently 3 main projects are in progress;

  • 1. Updating N & S fertiliser recommendations for spring malting barley: April 2021
  • 2. NOatS: Nitrogen and Sulphur management of spring oats: May 2022
  • 3. Nitrogen and sulphur fertiliser management to achieve grain protein quality

targets of high yielding modern winter milling wheat: March 2022
