Soil Fertility

A truly fertile soil is more than just a block of dirt to grow a crop or pasture with a bit of help from an addition of some bulk fertiliser.

A truly fertile soil is a finely tuned balance of bio-chemistry and micro-biology. Nutrients are required to be present in precise proportion to each other and to the soil properties. Correct biological diversity is also required to maintain a healthy soil with good structure and good nutrient availability for healthy plant growth.

AgNutri advises on how to get the best from your soil with practical solutions that are sustainable and that make economic sense. At AgNutri we have a wealth of experience to draw from having worked with some of New Zealand's most respected consultants and through working with some of the world's most innovative fertiliser and soil amendment suppliers. AgNutri uses Hills Laboratories in Hamilton for independent soil sample analysis. Other biological assessments can be conducted by a choice of several independent specialists.

The recommendations AgNutri provide will include inputs from your traditional fertiliser supplier. It is also likely that other, more specialised or sustainable inputs will also be recommended and AgNutri can assist in sourcing these products.

At AgNutri we like to include you, the client, in the decision making process when finalising the product choice and application timings and methods. This enables the most practical solutions to be implemented and ultimately gives the best results.
