Demonstrating soil zone mapping for variable rate nutrition management
Lead organisation: Mallee Sustainable Farming
Hub members and partners involved: Murray Plains Farmers, Frontier Farming Systems, Agronomy Solutions, SARDI
Project Category: Hub Projects
Project summary: 

This project demonstrates management of input costs and risk by zoning in different soil types, understanding input requirements in different zones, and fertilising accordingly. This is particularly relevant following dry or drought years, when nutrients may be left behind and less will need to be replaced, and also in years with good soil moisture and rainfall to maximise the opportunity for higher yields.
