About
|
This calculator provides a
platform to explore the elemental nutrient value in compound fertilisers
based on the proportional contribution to its cost price, compared to using
straight products. Each nutrient is valued equally from an agronomic
perspective. Output also provides an indication of premium being paid for
multi-nutient products versus the same nutrients purchasing separately.
