CottonInfo nutrition workshop - Narromine

Catch up with leading industry researcher Dr Chris Dowling - one of Australia’s leading specialists in the management of soils and plant nutrition.

CottonInfo invites you to attend a session with Chris at Narromine to answer questions about nutrition given the wet start to the season. The sessions will be informal and will give you the chance to address any nutrition issues you may have. Plus, you can bring along a soil test for Chris, and discuss your specific options.

Topics covered will include:

• The implications of a cold wet start on crop nutrition.
• The timing of post plant P.
• Percentage of N required (and the post plant timeframes) to avoid significant yield impacts.
• Options for nutrition (no N, no P, no incorporated P).
• Dryland cotton nutrition requirements.
• The pitfall and gains of double-crop following chickpeas.
• What you should expect to see (and how to react).

Date: Wednesday 9 Nov 
Time: 8:30am-11am (morning tea provided) 
Location: Narromine District USC (upstairs room)
