CNC23 L-CBF Boost trial plan

As part of the AICC Crop Nutrition Club 2023, this on-farm winter wheat trial tested the effects of applying L-CBF Boost liquid carbon fertiliser. The trial was facilitated by a local AICC advisor, with support and Agronomics yield map analysis from ADAS.

Results summary: The trial found negligible yield effects from the inclusion of L-CBF Boost. Grain analysis also showed no benefits of L-CBF Boost to any grain nutrient concenrations.
