The Benefits of Liquid Nitrogen Fertiliser for Grassland

Nitroflo liquid fertilisers for grassland include some of the most concentrated products available in the UK and Ireland. They are delivered for farmer or contractor application and offer many advantages over conventional solid fertiliser application in terms of accuracy, consistency and ease of use.

By using OMEX Nitroflo liquid grassland fertilisers, farmers save time, protect the environment, and maximise crop yields. All OMEX liquid fertilisers are supplied in bulk, eliminating packaging and the need to recycle waste, and provide major handling and storage advantages over solid fertilisers.

Post cut or grazing, grass will respond to Nitroflo grassland fertiliser more quickly than granular fertiliser
Daily gain in dry matter is larger when using Nitroflo
Even in drought conditions new growth following uptake of Nitroflo grassland fertiliser can be seen within 36 hours
All the benefits of accurate application still apply in grass
Nitroflo S contains sulphur in a form that is immediately plant available
Accurate application up to field margins
Three sources of nitrogen – ammonium, nitrate and urea – so the best balance between availability to crop when needed and reduced risk of loss through leaching
Effective across a full range of crops, including grass & forage crops
No off-loading costs as Nitroflo grassland fertiliser is pumped directly into holding tanks on-farm
Effective across a full range of crops, including grass & forage crops

No off-loading costs as Nitroflo is pumped directly into holding tanks on-farm
No bag disposal
Faster response to application on silage ground after first cut, especially in dry conditions
Improved application accuracy. Tests show that application by granular spreader often vary by 20% across the spread width. Farm sprayers are unlikely to vary by more than 5%
Better utilisation of time and labour – Nitroflo can be applied in less favourable conditions, when applying solid fertilisers or crop spraying would not be possible
Higher work rates. It takes just a couple of minutes for one person to load the sprayer with Nitroflo
An opportunity to upgrade sprayer and increase tramline widths, increasing the cropped area, work rates and accuracy of topdressing

“I used Nitroflo 26S for the first time this year. ”

I liked the accuracy across the field and no overlapping the ins and outs with auto-shutoff. I noticed far less secondary growth in my spring malting barley compared with what I saw in crops that had solid. I put this down to the more rapid uptake in dry conditions. We also saw fast regrowth on 2nd cut silage. The tank installation guys were very efficient and professional. The fact that the liquid is stored in its own tank is fantastic as it doesn’t take up shed space during the season.

How Much Sulphur To Apply To Your Grassland Crop

The continued reduction in sulphur deposition means that many rural areas of the UK currently receive less than around 5kg/ha of S from the atmosphere. The following recommendations take this into account. Sulphur deficiency reduces the yield and quality potential of grassland and is exacerbated by high forage removal rates.

Responsive crops require approximately 40kg/ha SO3. Top-dressing with Nitroflo 20+S provides immediately available sulphur to supply the crops needs. Including sulphur in your Nitroflo, Nitrogen Plus Sulphur For Grassland, will help prevent deficiency and promote yield.

Sulphur in Your Grassland Liquid Fertiliser Application

Sulphur deposition has decreased dramatically over the last 30 years, as a result of the Clean Air Act. Deficiencies of this vital element are now visible in many areas of the UK.

Where deposition is less than 10kg/ha/year most crops will benefit from applications of fertiliser containing sulphur. Responses to sulphur vary according to soil type, with greater responses likely on light or sandy soils.

The level of response is affected by over winter rainfall on loam and coarse silty soils, with high rainfall increasing the likelihood of a significant yield increase. Clay, fine silts and organic soils have a lower likelihood of yield responses, except in areas with medium to high winter rainfall, where there is a medium chance of a yield response.
