Q99. How quickly does nitrogen volatilise from applied urea?
Nitrogen from urea can begin volatilising within 24–48 hours after dissolving, especially under warm, windy conditions and on wet soils that are drying.

Q97. How much nitrogen does organic matter release over the season, and how quickly does it become available?
Organic matter can release around 39 kg/ha of nitrogen per year under typical conditions, with availability depending on temperature, moisture, and microbial activity.
View moreQ95. How much nitrogen does a green manure (vetch) crop contribute to the soil?
Green manure vetch crops can contribute around 154 kg/ha of nitrogen to the soil, with fixation strongly linked to biomass production and rainfall.
View moreQ94. How does my fertiliser strategy change after the soil is mechanically ameliorated? i.e. plozza, spading, etc?
After mechanical soil amelioration, fertiliser needs may rise due to higher yield potential and nutrient redistribution, so updated soil testing is essential to guide nitrogen, phosphorus, and trace element strategies.
View moreQ93. How can I use a yield map to make a phosphorus recommendation?
Use yield maps to calculate phosphorus removal and set replacement rates or create variable rate maps, but always consider soil tests and PBI to fine-tune recommendations.
