The Tillage Edge

Nitrogen is arguably the most important input in agriculture, and applying the right amount in the right place is essential to maximising return on investment.  
 
Dr Richie Hackett, a researcher with Teagasc, joins the podcast to discuss how farmers can get the best from their nitrogen inputs.
 
Richie explains that liquid nitrogen can be just as effective as solid nitrogen sources. Preliminary trial results also indicate that applying melted urea to cereals performs as well as applying urea in its solid form.
