| Lucerne in Bairnsdale, Vic. | | | | | | | Outcome | | | | | |
| Background | | | Brad Obst operates a farm at Bairnsdale in the South East of Victoria. He had grave concerns that he could no longer grow on this piece of land and in fact, was advised to dig it up and start again from scratch. As a result the land has been neglected without any effort being exerted into changing soil or growing for the last few years. | | | Brad has no current fertiliser regime, has used contract sprayers and also has irrigation. | | | Key objectives of the trial were • To improve quality of Lucerne crop
• Check value of using a fertilizer program.
• Test Profert performance.
| | | | What we recommended | | | • Sprayed 15ml Profert to 1 litre of water.
| | | • Did two sprays one month apart | | | | Results achieved | | | • Lucerne grew faster and healthier | | | • Went from 100 bales of hay to 150 bales - a 50% increase!
| | | Brad is very happy - believes Profert the best product he has used for growing lucerne! | | |
