Yara agronomist advice on wheat

How to increase wheat grain size and weight
How to increase wheat grain size and weight
Wheat grain size is strongly influenced by plant nutrition particularly during the important grain filling period. Nitrogen, phosphate, potassium, magnesium and zinc are particularly important.
How to increase wheat protein quantity and quality
How to increase wheat protein content and quality
Nitrogen and sulphur both influence grain protein content and quality. Nitrogen should be applied when the plant can still incorporate the nitrogen into its grain, and sulphur levels need to be adequate to ensure this does not limit nitrogen use.
How to maintain wheat health with nutrition
How to maintain wheat health with nutrition
Plant nutrients are predominantly associated with increasing yield and quality through ensuring no mineral deficiency is restricting growth and development. However, a well balanced fertiliser programme will help the plant protect itself from disease.
