The South Australian Farmer As A Business Man
A South Australian farmer should treat farming like a business, tracking soil nutrients and crop removal. Phosphoric acid is deficient in soil, so phosphates must be restored. heavy superphosphate does not cause blight and improves grazing, with water washing not leaching phosphates. Experts advise 1 cwt per acre in many soils, possibly rising to 1¼ cwt. per acre, to sustain heavy crops and improve pastures.
