As maize is a valuable crop with a high demand for nutrients it is important to know the soil pH and available nutrient levels in order to apply the necessary lime and fertiliser to ensure good crops. When the maize field has been chosen a soil sample should be taken for analysis unless the field has been tested within the last 3-5 years. Bartholomews provide a complete soil analysis package which allows a tailored approach to nutrient management.

Urea 46% Plus Protected by Limus® 34.5N + 3K + 1.5MgO + 4.5CaO + 12SO3 Season Long Blend DS+ 24N + 14SO3 Compound BASF’s nitrogen stabiliser improves the Nitrogen Use Efficiency of slurry and liquid biogas digestate waste, reducing nitrous oxide emissions by 50%. On average, Vizura can increase maize yields by 7%, with starch yields increasing by 12%.

To be applied where possible, down the spout and placed near the seed in order to get the maize off to the best start. Phosphate D 12.5-32-4+2MgO+5CaO+14.5SO3 Blend
