Boost Your Soil’s Power: Understanding Cation Exchange Capacity Dairy Insight
Soil is the most valuable resource on your farm. However, it’s often overlooked and underappreciated. By taking the time to better understand your soil, you can adjust your management practices and enjoy the benefits of more productive land. This not only benefits the environment by reducing runoff and nutrient leaching, but it also improves the efficiency and effectiveness of your farm. Healthy soil is characterised by vibrant microbiological activity, having a good physical structure and by being well balanced in nutrients.
This Dairy Insight introduces you to nutrient availability and cation exchange capacity and how it impacts your soil health.
