A great product for great pastureSuPerfect is ideal for clover-based pasture production. The Hamilton long-term phosphate trial showed that consistently using single superphosphate (SuPerfect) will improve the quality of pasture and support higher stocking rates.1

Plenty of sulphurSuPerfect delivers a higher ratio of sulphate sulphur to phosphorus than many other pasture fertilisers. Sulphur is critical for pasture based legume systems with recommended annual applications of 10–15kg sulphur per hectare per year.

Readily available nutrientsAs well as providing sulphur in the plant-available sulphate form, SuPerfect contains orthophosphate, an inorganic form of phosphorus which is water soluble and plant available.

More even distribution produces more even growthThe relatively even size of SuPerfect granules provides excellent nutrient distribution to encourage uniform and healthy plant growth.

Less dustAs a granulated product, SuPerfect tends to have harder granules that are less prone to breaking down into dust than traditional single superphosphate, this generally leads to less fine particles and a wider spread width that can make spreading faster.

SuPerfect® is a high quality granulated superphosphate fertiliser exclusively manufactured by Incitec Pivot Fertilisers in Geelong and Portland.

Ideal for top-dressing grass and legume pastures, SuPerfect combines the proven nutrient value of superphosphate with the handling advantages of a high quality granule. Compared to traditional superphosphate, SuPerfect is easier to store, transport, blend and spread.

SuPerfect provides a balance of readily available key nutrients such as phosphorus, sulphur and calcium for superior pasture performance.

Helping to maximise pasture growth

Why choose SuPerfect?

Getting the best out of SuPerfect4 Spreading before the break By applying SuPerfect before the autumn break, you

give your pastures access to both phosphorus and sulphur as soon as they start growing, promoting excellent root growth and early seedling vigour.

4 Monitoring levels of nutrition Regular soil and plant tissue testing helps ensure that

your fertiliser program matches your pasture’s needs. Using the test results as a guide, you may find that

applying SuPerfect with other nutrients such as muriate of potash or trace elements will enhance pasture production.

4 The value of higher rates As the graph below shows, using higher rates of

SuPerfect can improve the composition of pasture. Low quality feed like onion grass and wallaby grass fall out of the mix as improved pasture species like clover and ryegrass increase.
