Richland fertiliser for silage yes / no

I am thinking of using Richland on my silage ground this year. Its index 3 for p & k. The p&k are a little lower than for example cut sward. But i like the added copper etc in the Richland. What has been your experience when using it on silage ground?

I used it the last few years, probably for the Sulpher more than the lower P&K. I normally use slurry and a bag of 0:7:30 as well.

Its hard to know what to use. I put out slurry last week before the rain got it out on 3/4 of the silage ground. The rest was too wet. I like the added minerals of it alright i just wonder does it have the punch

That's I can't answer, using minerals in the water here so hopefully someone else may have some experience.
