flag Australian farmers use spring plant tests to detect key nutrient shortages, improving pasture and livestock health.

flag Plant tissue testing in spring helps Australian livestock producers identify deficiencies in copper, molybdenum, boron, and zinc—key nutrients for pasture growth and animal health—based on data from over 5,300 samples across Victoria and South Australia. flag Testing provides a more accurate assessment of nutrient uptake than soil tests, especially for molybdenum, which cannot be reliably measured in soil. flag Deficiencies can impair plant development, reduce legume persistence, and harm ruminant health, while excess molybdenum may trigger copper deficiency in animals. flag Targeted fertilizers and enhanced-efficiency products help correct imbalances and reduce nitrogen loss.
