Nutrient Management Workshop (Caithness)
Money can be saved by more efficient nutrient budgeting, especially linked to pH levels.
Efficient nutrient management is the process of ensuring the right amount of nutrients are present at the right time across the entire rotation and growing season. It is linked to soil pH since this impacts the plant availability of the P and K fertilisers that you apply and has a role in determining the N use efficiency.
Come join us on Wednesday 22 November @ 11am in the Ulbster Arms Hotel, Halkirk, KW12 6XY at this practical workshop covering the fundamentals of
- Preparing a nutrient management plan
- Principles of efficient nutrient use
- The tools farmers can use to help them make management decisions on their use of organic manures and fertilisers.
Arable, Nutrient planning and soils specialist David Ross of SAC Consulting will lead the workshop.
Lunch is provided and spaces are limited so please book your place as soon as possible.
