Benefits
Provide nitrogen (18%) and phosphate (20%) for field crops, greenfeed brassicas, sheep, beef and dairy pasture.
A cost effective product providing readily available nitrogen and phosphate.
Has good spreading and flow characteristics.
Can be used as an alternative source of phosphate if soil sulphate levels are high or sulphur is not required.
Is also used in forestry where both nitrogen and phosphate are required. -
Uses
The primary use for DAP is as a fertiliser to provide nitrogen (18%) and phosphate (20%) for field crops, greenfeed brassicas, sheep, beef and dairy pasture. It can be used as an alternative source of phosphate if soil sulphate levels are high or sulphur is not required. It is also used in forestry where both nitrogen and phosphate are required.
-
Application
Because all Cropmaster products contain nitrogen, correct calibration of application equipment is important.
As with most solid fertilisers, Cropmaster DAP can be stored over a season as long as it is kept in a cool, dry, well ventilated area. Store bags in a dry place ensuring they are tightly sealed.
Also, clean drills and spreaders after use to avoid corrosion. -
Arable
Use as a planting fertiliser for field crops at 60-200kg/ha. Although at the higher rates it may be advisable to broadcast rather than drill the product. For process crops, rates can be much higher with an application rate of 150-625kg/ha depending on phosphate requirements. For greenfeed brassicas, an application rate of 100-300kg/ha is required. It is important to avoid seed contact. If direct drilling, use lower drilling rates (<100 kg DAP/ha). If more is required, the balance should be broadcast.
-
Pastoral
Use as a maintenance phosphate fertiliser with an application rate of 90-200kg/ha on sheep & beef farms or to meet some of the maintenance phosphate requirements on a dairy farm, especially where strategic nitrogen is required.
Actual spreading rates will vary according to farm type, climate, productivity and soil type. Soil testing and fertiliser plans are available to ensure you use the right product at the correct rate. Call our Customer Centre for information. -
Forestry
Use as a planting fertiliser with an application rate of 80-100 grams per tree placed into a spade slot 15cm away from the tree or for topdressing forests at 200-375kg/ha.
