While seasonal conditions have limited yield prospects across much of WA, five canola trials are testing the economics of using much higher than district rates of N.

CSBP has joined forces with the DWER, DPIRD, fertiliser companies and industry groups on a federally funded 'Smart Farms Project'.

The 2019 CSBP field trials program includes a total of six canola and southern cereal trials and focuses on nitrogen rates and placement.

CSBP's Research and Agronomy team has recently installed telemetry weather stations at around the state to get real time weather data from our trial sites.

Using nitrogen (N) to grow feeds is a very practical option especially during the colder months.

CSBP has been testing the need for potash in broadacre crops since the mid 1960's.

Fertiliser toxicity on emerging crops can be caused by two factors; salt effect and ammonia toxicity, which can occur individually or in a combination.

2018 was the sixth and final year of our long term lime x potassium trial that was located in Cascades, WA.
