More Profit from Nitrogen is a partnership of Australia’s four major intensive users of nitrogen (N) fertiliser: cotton, dairy, sugar and horticulture through Cotton Research and Development Corporation, Dairy Australia, Sugar Research Australia Ltd and Hort Innovation Australia Ltd (Mangoes & Cherries). It aims to bring about increased farm profitability and reduced environmental impact by increasing N use efficiency (NUE) across the four industry sectors, resulting in a reduction of the amount of N required to produce each unit of product.
Field and laboratory research is being undertaken over a four year period by leading organisations: The University of Melbourne, Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture, NSW Department of Primary Industries, Queensland Department of Environment and Science, Queensland Department of Agriculture and Fisheries, Northern Territory Department of Primary Industry and Resources, Queensland University of Technology and University of Southern Queensland. More can be discovered by visiting the Program’s website: https://www.crdc.com.au/more-profit-nitrogen .
This project is supported by funding from the Australian Government Department of Agriculture and Water Resources as part of its Rural R&D for Profit program.
