Learning New Skills (19-24 Dec 2016)

Fertilization is a crucial part of farming.  Knowing each type of fertiliser and its importance, and understanding application rates and dilution rates allow the OA farmers to be self-sustainable.

This week, our OA farmers learned how to make Fish Emulsion Fertiliser.  Fish emulsion provides calcium, magnesium, sulphur and sodium which plants require in micro quantities. This process takes a month to complete, yielding concentrates that can be diluted before being used on the farm.
