As part of Nutrient Management Week, Grass10 Campaign Manager, John Maher talks about the time of applications to maximise their return.

On this episode of the Dairy Edge podcast, he also discusses the rates to apply to find the balance between driving growth and mitigating potential environmental losses, and how getting soil fertility right improves the return from applied nutrients thus being an important factor in minimising potential nutrient loss also.

Plus, he speaks to Mike Ahern who farms near Ballyduff, Co. Waterford. Mike was the winner of the Nutrient Management category as well as the overall winner of that Grassland Farmer of the Year Competition in 2024.
