Four Year Trial Shows Phosphate Boosts Pasture Yields
The study at the Experiment Farm assesses fertilisers on a Phalaris rye grass red clover white clover subclover pasture. Top dressing with one to two cwt of super phosphate per acre greatly raises yield, up to 274 percent with two cwt plus lime or manure, and increases clover content to about 50 percent. The highest yield occurred with two cwt super phosphate plus ten tons of animal manure per acre, more than five times unfertilised plots. Authors caution results suit the soil and pasture type and call for further trials to find a cost effective rate and explore higher applications in similar climates.
