The Fertiliser section of the Soil Quality Knowledge Base describes the common crop and pasture fertilisers, and nutrient management in the south-western region of WA. The webpage contains 3 videos, Nutrient management in farming systems in Western Australia with Craig Scanlan [2:20], Accumulation of phosphorus in high rainfall pasture soil in Western Australia [1:50] and Nitrogen management following deep ripping of soil with Richard Quinlan [3:41]. While the content focuses on Western Australia, the information is applicable to other Australian regions with sandy soils.#
This is a carefully curated database of important soil resources. The data base is not exhaustive but rather a library of the resources we believe are the most useful for the audience. Each resource has been added after careful consideration against our selection criteria, including but not limited to its scientific validity, accessibility, and readability. The library generally does not include most academic research papers but may include some open-source papers written in accessible English.

SSA reminds users that these resources are a guide only. Our understanding of soil science is improving continuously so it is important to check the suitability of the information for your purpose with an appropriately qualified professional such as a Registered Soil Professional or a Certified Professional Soil ScientistÂ
