This page provides information links specific to nutrient management of high rainfall pastures (more than 600 mm average annual rainfall) in the south-west of Western Australia.

Good practice nutrient management aims to increase the profitability of fertiliser use, and reduce the negative off-site impacts of nutrient movement. Good practices include monitoring soils and plant nutrient levels, analysing nutrient levels to meet plant and animal production needs, and using correct application techniques and application rates.

Nutrient management in the high rainfall areas has positive and negative economic and environmental effects. The links on this page will help maximise the positive effects and minimise the negative effects.
