For today’s Grow the Future podcast, we’re joined by Natalie Wood, Product Manager for YaraVita and Biologicals to discuss the growing role of foliar nutrition in modern crop production.

The episode begins with an overview of the season, covering drilling progress, weather conditions across the country, and harvest results to date. Natalie explains when foliar nutrition should be introduced into crop programmes and why it is becoming increasingly important in helping crops overcome environmental and nutritional challenges. She shares practical examples from the field, including the greening effect observed when farmers apply YaraVita CropBoost to maize.

The discussion also explores nutrient management strategies for oilseed rape and cereals, taking into account changing weather patterns and the potential influence of El Niño conditions. Natalie provides tailored recommendations for wheat, barley, and oats, alongside an update on the YaraAmplix biostimulant range and its role in supporting crop performance.

The episode concludes with Natalie’s key product recommendations for the season, including YaraVita Brassitrel Pro for oilseed rape and YaraVita CropBoost and Gramitrel for cereals.
