Soil microorganisms play a central role in driving soil processes.

Nitrogen boosts may be necessary following wet winter washout

Nutrient management plans need to account for the loss of nitrate from sodden soils and crop condition

The role of nutrition during pregnancy upon heifer lifetime productivity within the herd

Relatively dry winter conditions across most of the UK mean farmers could potentially reduce the amount of nitrogen applied to crops

Rainfall levels have been below average so far this winter and this has implications for nutrient management

Nutrient Management Guide RB209 updated with new guidance

Find out how to account for nitrate losses with the EWR tool. Use this information to guide nutrient management planning

A lowering of RB209 phosphate offtake values for cereals could be justified, according to results from an AHDB-funded review.
