While many crops will be past the time when significant N fertiliser rate decisions are likely for this season the petiole N data is some interesting comparisons that can be made between the apparent crop N status of the Northern and Southern  crops, backpaddock.com.au/2024/02/12/cha…

Two very different scenarios for the northern and southern irrigated cotton crop N status compared to last season are emerging. The irrigated cotton crops in northern and southern growing regions have progressed into flowering stages when N management backpaddock.com.au/2024/01/19/con…

The nitrification of urea applied in summer is generally not limited by soil temperature or a lack of soil microbial population. This leaves soil water as the main factor limiting its conversion to nitrate-N. #BackpaddockNews #CottonLeafBlade backpaddock.com.au/2023/12/29/how…

One of the variables that can significantly affect the accuracy of plant tissue analysis in cotton is plant stress, particularly plant water stress. Currently, this is avoided by limiting sampling to a particular day in the irrigation cycle or after backpaddock.com.au/2023/12/27/can…

The use of efficiency enhancement additives (EEF) in nitrogen fertiliser products in irrigated cotton seems to be on the rise as we experience their benefits,  successful use cases and measure successes.   EEF #BackpaddockNews #Cotton #CottonLeafBlade backpaddock.com.au/2023/12/24/tim…

Some advisers have asked, “why have BPC continued to use petiole nitrate-N” in our in-crop cotton N management service?  My answers are sometimes a bit long-winded and technical, but the short answeris that “we haven’t been able to find a technology backpaddock.com.au/2023/12/19/why…

The first leaf and petiole samples from Moree have been tested through the BPC Cotton Plant Tissue system. Early results are posing questions about the effect of preplant N management on starting levels of plant tissue N, compared to previous seasons backpaddock.com.au/2023/12/08/its…
