The new Granulock 10Z cropping fertiliser was released in 2005. It can be used independently, or in a range of nitrogen and sulphur blends. These new fertilisers are ideally suited to growers who use the following management techniques: do not pre-drill urea; use no-till or minimum till; sowing at wide row spacing.
