Nitrogen for Grass – Part 1

Dramatically reducing nitrogen application rates in an attempt to save costs in light of escalating fertiliser prices could potentially be a false economy compromising forage production and feed costs. Instead, the focus should be on understanding and making the most of home-produced nutrients, together with targeted, early application of nitrogen to achieve the biggest return on investment. This dairy insight explores the benefits of nitrogen for grass and how to apply.
