Wednesday Tec Talk: Silicon in Cropping Systems
from In The Paddock
This week we are talking about the benefits of Silicon in the cropping system. Silicon is a non-essential plant nutrient but can still play a significant role in our farming system. While the mode of action is unknown there is growing evidence that silicon can act as a stress reducer in plants and possibly even help to reduce disease. In this podcast we look at a few things you may need to consider if you're going to incorporate silica into your cropping system.
