Minimizing the damage caused by diseases and pests. It’s a goal all farmers have shared since farming began – and sugar cane farmers are no exception. With the right technology it is certainly achievable.
High volume milk production or even hay silage production requires our pastures meet several key factors. Good Water Infiltration Moisture Retention Healthy Structure Of Underlying Soil A healthy soil can be defined as being well structured, to allow both moisture and air movement, having a healthy population of beneficial micro organisms, an acceptable pH range [...]
Continuous use over many years, and increasing application rates of chemically based inputs, has overtime, degraded the quality and health of the soil profile on many Australian farms. This has resulted in lowered productivity (plants unable to perform to their genetic capability) and other issues associated with: Nutrient Leaching Unwanted Green House Gas Emissions Erosion [...]
A good supply of trace elements in agricultural horticulture reduces the need for higher fertiliser rates while providing plants with: Better Nutrition for Increased Yield Better Colour Better Shape Better Taste for produce A longer shelf-life. Regular use of Profert® will result in less damage by diseases and pests, through improved nutrition which strengthens the [...]
In Viticulture we face a challenge when it comes to giving our vines the ability to withstand frost and heat stress. To a large extent, however, this can be achieved more readily by correct nutrition, well structured soil and a thriving population of beneficial micro organisms using a sustainable fertilizer technology.
