For this soil the CEC is less than 10meq/100g of soil,

REQUIREMENT, including Trace Elements, be applied
kg/ha
on three separate applications over the season.
- Gypsum Requirement is to increase the Calcium and Sulphur and decrease the Exchangeable Sodium and or
the Exchangeable Magnesium in the soil. For best results, use only 'A-grade' Gypsum.
We recommend that 25 kg/ha of Potassium should be applied after cutting of Hay.

LAND USE:
PASTURE
PAGE NO : 5
Desirable levels for Exchangeable Cations (Ca, Mg, Na, K and H) is directly related to the constant desirable
level percentages (see pie graph page 3) and the soil's Adjusted CEC. The other elements vary in relation to the
soil's CEC, landuse, leaching requirement and yield.
If soil pH (water) is below 5.7, trace elements should not be applied until Lime and/or Dolomite applications have
had time to raise the pH to this level. For soils with pH (water) of 8.0 or more, apply trace elements as foliar spray
only.
The recommendations for Gypsum/Lime/Dolomite/MgSO 4 on page 4 are essential to the process of
achieving optimum soil balance. All other recommendations in this report (NPKS & trace elements) have been
formulated on the assumption that the Gypsum/Lime/Dolomite/MgSO 4 have been applied and given sufficient time
for their effects to develop. In most cases, six months will be required between application of cation balance
correction and fertilisers, however, more time may be required in lower rainfall zones or dry seasons. In areas with
shallow saline watertables and NO subsurface drainage, no Gypsum should be applied (even if recommended
here) until adequate drainage can be provided. It should also be noted that the amounts recommended depend, in
part, on the stated sample depth.
For all required materials - Gypsum/Lime/Dolomite/Magnesium Sulphate/Magnesium Oxide (where surface
application is necessary and irrigation is not available), the total application should be limited to roughly
2.5 t/ha per year. This limitation does not apply where materials can be cultivated or irrigated into the soil.
Important note: For all reports that have landuse as "Pasture". If molybdenum is needed to be applied, then
copper needs to be applied as well even if available copper is high. Copper and molybdenum are antagonistic to
each other so if molybdenum is applied without copper, molybdenum will deplete copper leading to copper
deficiency in animals. The main problem occurs when animals graze treated pasture soon after application. For this
reason, if you are worried about applying copper when there is enough in your soil, you can apply molybdenum
alone BUT you MUST keep animals off the pasture for at least 6 weeks (longer if there has been little or no rain).
SWEP does not recommend or promote specific products, so all recommendations are given in kg/ha of actual nutrient. These
must be converted into applications of fertiliser. For assistance in doing this, consult your local supplier.
