    I got slurry today out off a dairy man beside me. The cattle are in and high yielders on 10 kg of meal a day. What N P K value should I put on it to work out what fertiliser I will need?

    If you are taking more you could take a sample and get it tested

    The few loads I be taking it wouldn't be worth it. I'm only get a few load early in the year and save my own for 2 cut.
