With fertiliser prices at all-time highs and increasing enforcement of the Farming Rules for Water (2018), properly planned applications of fertilisers and organic manures are even more important than ever.
At Siggs & Co, we specialise in creating comprehensive farm nutrient management plans tailored to the unique needs of farms across Devon and the South West UK. Our experienced team of independent, FACTS-qualified consultants offers practical, cost-effective solutions to help you reduce costs, improve productivity, and meet compliance standards.
What Our Nutrient Management Plan Includes
Our plans are designed to simplify the nutrient management process while maximising savings and ensuring compliance.
Each plan includes:
– Field Analysis: Detailed information about each field, including size, soil type, previous soil analysis, and NVZ (Nitrate Vulnerable Zone) status.
– Historical Data: Records of crops grown, fertilisers used, and manure applications from the previous season.
– Future Planning: Recommendations for upcoming cropping plans and calculations of crop nutrient requirements.
– Manure Management: Estimates of slurry and farmyard manure availability, with recommendations for cost-effective field applications.
– Fertiliser Efficiency: Calculations to balance crop nutrient needs with the right fertiliser types and quantities.
– Compliance and Record-Keeping: Detailed recommendations to meet UK regulations and simplify record-keeping requirements.
Our nutrient management plans are developed using specialist software from FarnWise, providing easy-to-use, actionable insights for your farm.
