AN OPEN TIONN A I N E Challenge Kotkur Phosphate has been introduced to meet the definite demand for a fertiliser suitable for hand top-dressing hill country. At the same time Kotkur readily flows through a top-dresser, because it is the most free-running of all manures yet produced. It is also specially suitable in high rainfall districts where the soils lie cold and wet in the late Winter and early Spring. QUESTIOII: no you top-dress hill pastures only infrequently f Answer: Kotkur Phosphate 54/56 is an ideal manure where top-dressing cannot be applied frequently because three-fifths of its phosphate content is immediately water soluble and the remaining twofifths becomes slowly available. QUESTION: Does the time 9 labour and difficulty prevent you top-dressing hilly as you wish? Answer: Owing to its coarsley granular nature Kotkur phosphate can be applied in less time and with less labour yet distribution is more even. Kotkur is the most efficient hillside manure yet devised# QUESTIOII: What type of fertiliser do you use on waterholdiny pastures* or petti and clay soils? Answer: Kotkur can be used to great advantage in high rainfall districts where soil lies cold add; wet in late Winter and early Spring, and in swampy, clay and peat soils, because its fertilising ingredient is present in the Water-insoluble as well as the water-soluble form of phosphate. iii ms ■ Mii ■ m m m m m m m m n m. 54 ii ■ m; This photograph gives a good indication of the size of the new phosphate.
