SUMMARY:Efficient and Effective Foliar Nutrition
DESCRIPTION:\nA live webinar event\n\n\n\nThe application of nutrients, or fertilisers, that plants require is an important component in primary production operations. For numerous reasons, crops or pastures, may not naturally get all the nutrients they need from the soil in order to perform well. The considered application of fertiliser is often necessary to meet the desired outcomes of enterprise programs.\n\n\n\nThe price of fertilisers continues to rise as global supplies are used up, this coincides with a general decline in soil health in agriculture and a greater reliance on and requirement of fertiliser to maintain production..  More than ever, there is both an economic and environmental imperative to make nutrient applications as efficient and effective as possible.\n\n\n\nPresented by Mark Tupman from Productive Ecology, this webinar will explore how the application of nutrients to the foliage of plants can be an effective way to improve crop/pasture nutritional status, and as a consequence reduce the volume and costs of some inputs whilst at the same time contribute to improved soil health. . Topics covered include:\n\n\n\n\nWhy Foliars – soil constraints, efficiency, environmental implications\n\n\n\nDetermining nutritional requirements for a foliar program\n\n\n\nImproving photosynthesis and protein synthesis\n\n\n\nSuitable forms of nutrients for foliar applications\n\n\n\nApplication rates and spray concentrations\n\n\n\nCompatibility – what is and what’s not\n\n\n\nChelating/Complexing Nutrients for improved uptake\n\n\n\nWinning Combinations – Nutrients, Biostimulants and Inoculants\n\n\n\nDIY recipes for success\n\n\n\nGetting the tank mix right – water quality, pH, EC, mixing order\n\n\n\nApplication Considerations – climactic conditions, time of day, spray equipment/nozzles, stage of growth, frequency…\n\n\n\nTesting effectiveness – Brix, Plant and Tissue Analysis\n\n\n\n\nEvent Logistics\n\n\n\nWhen? Thursday April 11th, 4.00pm to 5.30pm\n\n\n\nWhere? You can participate in this webinar from the comfort of your own home!\n\n\n\nHow? Once you register you’ll receive a confirmation with a link to the  webinar. As this is a LIVE, ONLINE webinar you’ll be able to ask questions during and after the presentation.\n\n\n\nAfter the webinar we’ll send you:\n\n\n\n\nAccess to the recording of the webinar\n\n\n\nA PDF of the presentation\n\n\n\n\nCost? This is a free event\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister for the Webinar\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is supported though funding from Soil Wise. Soil Wise is funded by the National Landcare Program Smart Farms Small Grants – an Australian Government initiative. It is supported by Healthy Estuaries WA – a State Government program. This event also forms part of the Lower Blackwood LCDC’s Regenerative Agriculture in Practice Program and is supported through the Shire of Augusta Margaret River Environmental Management Fund.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
