Phosphate – what does this do for the soil, why is it important, why is it important to keep at safe levels?

Book your place and come to hear and chat with James Bretherton and Richard Lane about phosphates and their views.

What you will learn:

  • James will be looking at the phosphate cycle from imported to hitting the ground in the Northwest region and looking at how that impacts soil health and ultimately locking up nutrients which then affects the animals grazing
  • Richard Lane from the Dairy Group will be looking at livestock nutrition and how keeping everything in check can boost productivity and ultimately margins

We look forward to seeing you at Wigton Mart – book your space now.
