PROTECTING YOUR MOST VITAL ASSET
What you can do for your Soil
By : Carol Phillips

Soil is a finite resource insofar as it is formed at a very much slower rate than it is utilised. Its loss and degradation is not recoverable within a human lifespan. These therefore are important reasons for its care and management to be at the forefront of a farmer’s mind. At RLF we recognise the importance of sustainable soil management and this provides a significant basis of our approach to crop nutrition. RLF Specialty Fertilisers and fertilising concepts support the health of the soil in many ways. Protect your most vital asset because only healthy soils can produce healthy crops and pastures.
