Soil Quality
Fact Sheets - Optimising Soil Nutrition
Most soils contain reserves of nutrients that would otherwise have to be applied in fertilisers. Knowledge of your soil characteristics can aid in accessing these nutrients. Growers can employ a range of management strategies to ameliorate and manage soil constraints to minimise negative yield impacts. Some of these include liming for soil acidity, deep ripping and using rotations to minimise soil borne pathogens.
