22 Key Agronomic Messages P budget now very tight- requires good management Attention to soil P status Slurry/manure management Timing and location of P application Precision Nutrient Management: paddock scale at least
23 Key Environment Messages Positive trends in P source management Possible response in P concentrations in shallower water flow pathways during the winter months No clear trends in stream biological water quality Impact of management practices sooner closer to P sources on-farm - improvements in stream water quality delayed - Time Lag
24 Take-Home Messages Improvements in nutrient management may be slow to convert to definite improvements in stream water quality Stick with the established measures and water quality improvements should follow in time ND measures effective in improving P management on dairy farms Achieved with production and economic performance comparable to top 10% nationally- bodes well for dairy expansion Farmers should focus on implementing these measures as best they can -optimising nutrient management at the field/paddock scale -Precision Nutrient Management Slurry/soiled water/manure management NB This sort of intensive monitoring is probably necessary to effectively monitor and evaluate such NAPs
