Fertilise to maximise in a sustainable way
Date published:
The College of Agriculture, Food and Rural Enterprise (CAFRE) is organising on farm events to discuss the sustainable use of nutrients on farm to enhance growth potential.
CAFRE Beef and Sheep Advisers will provide practical advice on the key steps to managing nutrients on farm. Learn how to use your soil analysis report to determine crop requirements and utilise the value in organic manures to reduce your fertiliser bill.
These informative and practical events will be hosted across Northern Ireland to allow as many farmers as possible to attend. Host farmers will provide an overview of their farm business and the steps that they take to ensure that they make best use of nutrients produced on farm.
The first of these meetings will be held on Tuesday 15 April at 7:30pm on the farm of Victor Chestnutt, 9 Clougher Rd, Bushmills, BT57 8YJ.
Pre-booking is not required, everyone is welcome to attend.
