How to get the most from farmyard manure
Notes de l’épisode
Dr. Veronica Nyhan, Teagasc Soil and Plant Nutrition Specialist, joins us to discuss farmyard manure and how farmers can get the most from it.
We look at the nutrients contained in FYM, how these are affected by storage and spreading, and the difference in how nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium become available to the crop.
We also discuss some of the wider soil benefits of FYM before finishing with three key considerations when deciding where and when to spread it.
