You are invited to FARs Breakfast Webinar with Roger Sylvester-Bradley – What can we learn from grain nutrient analysis?

Grain analysis allows an accurate measure of nutrients taken out of the paddock and an assessment of nutrient use efficiency including if any nutrient levels impacted on yield. Prof Roger Sylvester-Bradley leads the Yield Enhancement Network (YEN) in the UK which has found that over 80% of crops on even the best farms show a deficiency of at least one nutrient.

Grain analysis is simple to do and provides a ‘post-mortem’ of your seasons nutrient management allowing you to set a strategy for the future. UK work has found that most variation in crop performance relates to the farm, rather than to the season, the region, the variety, or the soil type. So fastest improvement can be achieved by farms comparing themselves with each other and learning from the best performers. The YEN enables farms to do this through ‘benchmarking’ comparing across farms, paddocks, crops, and years to improve future decision-making for every nutrient in all grain crops.
