National Dairy Nutrient Guidelines
A national two-year project will see the development of guidelines on nutrient management.
Dairy Australia’s Natural Resource Management Program Manager, Cathy Phelps, said there are three parts to the project.
“The first step is to develop national nutrient management guidelines in partnership with farmers, advisors, fertiliser sellers and technical experts.
“The guidelines will then be piloted in at least three dairy regions to ensure they meet the needs of farmers and farm advisors.
“The third component involves on-farm demonstration of best practice nutrient management.”
Outputs from the project will be made available through a web-based dairy nutrient management toolkit.
