Optimising nutrient input into low nutrient availability calcareous sands of southern YP.
Lead organisation: Northern Sustainable Sand Hills
Hub members and partners involved: Trengove Consulting
Project Category: Hub Projects
Project summary: 

This project is part of the GRDC Riskwi$e program.

To determine best practice nutrient management strategies on low nutrient availability soils of SYP. These strategies will optimise financial returns and consider the risks and rewards, where soils with low inherent nutrient availability can require high fertiliser inputs and high costs.
This project will enable growers to make better informed in season decisions and give them the tools to build drought resilience.
This project will build on the activities of the Central RiskWise project theme 2, expanding its reach to Southern Yorke Peninsula (SYP), which to date has had limited involvement with the RiskWise project. Outcomes from this project will be shared across the 5 farming systems groups involved with the Central ARG RiskWise project.
