The Soil Wealth ICP team is developing a series of crop nutrition guides to help growers, advisors and other vegetable industry service providers to manage crop-specific nutrition. This guide focuses on broccoli/cauliflower crops and explores key considerations to ensure crop growth and nutrient needs are met, including:
- Growth stages of the crop and the nutritional focus for each stage
- Determining and calculating nutrient removal
- Factors affecting nutrient availability and uptake in the crop
- Approaches to crop monitoring, and
- Other helpful resources and information on nutrient functions.
The additional crop nutrition guides are in progress and will be published in the coming weeks – stay tuned!
