Nutrition management in Queensland field crops
The natural fertility of cropped agricultural soils is declining over time. Grain growers must continually review their management programs to ensure the long-term sustainability of high-quality grain production. Pasture leys, legume rotations and fertilisers all play an important role in maintaining the chemical, biological and physical fertility of soils.
