What fertiliser is suitable to ensure a balanced supply of elements and nutrients from crop development through to harvest?

a Maize ‘n Grain has been specifically blended as a base dressing of fertiliser, liming nutrients and gypsum. This product has been designed to supply the most important elements to ensure a proportional supply of P, K, S, Ca, Mg, B and Zn from crop development through to harvest.

When a Maize ‘n Grain is applied usually no lime should be needed as adequate calcium levels are present in the form of calcium hydroxide and calcium carbonate, unless pH levels are low and need to be raised for long term benefit.

To ensure supply of nitrogen and phosphate we recommend that 100 - 200kg of DAP (Diammonium phosphate) be applied at planting through the fertiliser drill. Side dressing may be applied as required with urea or CAN.

While rates may vary according to individual circumstances, i.e. Soil type, Soil analysis etc. The following recommendations are guide lines for most circumstances:
