The real benefits of biostimulants in crop programmes are continually discredited by legions of grifters selling their wares with overblown and unproven claims. The notion that a few litres of angel dust can substitute for fertilisers by replenishing crop offtakes is absurd

UAN on grassland shown to have lower N2O emissions than CAN, and the addition of nitrification inhibitors bring further reductions and agronomic benefits.

Highly visible differences continue to show up in the dry conditions on our @OMEXCompanies light land nitrogen and sulphur plots. The most resilient treatments had at least 180 kg/ha N and a decent dose of S.

The Nitrogen and Sulphur dose rate plots at our @OMEXCompanies light land trials site looking like a paint colour chart in the current droughty conditions. No prizes for spotting Treatment 1 = no nitrogen or sulphur.
