ASN Cold Start™ – the only Viable fertiliser for winter pasture production.
Fertiliser response and crop growth is controlled by three main factors which are able to be managed:-
1) Radiation – interception of light is controlled by leaf area duration i.e. pasture covers & planting date.
2) Moisture – soil moisture content is not normally limiting in winter, irrigation mitigates summer drought.
3) Nutrient- ryegrass will grow at 6°C given adequate supply of the correct nutrients. Strategic nutrient management is the most effective tool available to optimise crop yield.
ASNCold Start™ is the only fertiliser that gives nitrate, sulphate and ammonium in one compound granule, providing the optimum form and combination of nutrients for winter and spring pasture growth.
Apply ASNCold Start™ now to provide plant available sulphate and nitrate for an immediate pasture growth response prior to the first round of grazing.
NOTE:- Urea, PhasedN, Sustain, Ammonium Sulphate and other ammonium based products must undergo biochemical transformation in the soil to enable sufficient nutrient uptake for pasture growth.
At soil temperatures between 5o – 15o C these transformations (ammonification and nitrification) are much too slow to enable adequate supply of nitrate for pasture growth.
