Farmers use dairy effluent to boost pasture growth, but must limit application rates to avoid overloading soil nutrients.
Dairy effluent, rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, can boost pasture regrowth.
Testing the effluent helps determine the right application rate, limiting potassium to 60 kg per hectare per application and 120 kg yearly, and nitrogen to 60-80 kg per hectare.
Grazing should be restricted for 21 days post-application to avoid health risks.
Sludge can also be used but requires longer withholding periods.
Regular soil testing is advised to monitor soil health.
