Soil testing and fertility improvement planning
Soil health and the presence of nutrients are interdependent aspects of a soil fertility plan that will support your farming objectives.
We help you to achieve those objectives by taking soil samples on your farm, organising laboratory analysis and then providing qualified interpretation of ‘found’ and ‘optimum’ nutrient levels combined with practical experience over the greater Mansfield District.

Weeds Management
Weeds can have a significant effect on pasture productivity and can be dealt with via a variety of control methods.
While herbicides are generally most effective to kill unwanted weeds, in combination with non-chemical strategies such as rotational grazing, introduction of summer crops to provide a disease break and deeper root penetration, mechanical interference in the form of cultivation to kill emerging weeds or mulching to prevent flowering and seeding; these are all methods that will reduce the dependence on herbicides and in many instances, can be more effective.
