Autumn Tdpdbessing Pahticularly this Yeah While the soil is warm and Soil Bacteria Active The most profitable branch of farming to-day is the raising of fat lambs on top-dressed pastures. Top-dressing with “Super” and big profits from fat lambs are indissolubly linked together. Why ? Because the best lambs and the highest lambing percentages are ONLY obtained where pastures are rich in mineral phosphates. “Super” increases the nutritive Earlier Spring growth and increased value of Pastures growth of grass Chemical analyses of grasses and clovers grown with and without Early Autumn top-dressing with “Super” makes a marked increase top-dressing with “Super” show that annual applications of in the growth of grass in the following Spring besides bringing “Super” make the phosphate and protein content of grasses and away earlier. The problem of many farmers is to maintain , , .. .. T „ balance in the growth of grass and clover, and the early Autumn clover two and three times greater In o her words by regularly top-dressing with “Super” allows the grass to consolidate in the top-dressing your pastures with Super, you produce herbage Spr i n g before the clover growth comes awa with the high mineral content that plays such an important part in increasing the returns and profits from farming. w Th. heavy th. paat tew month, ha.
