Online nitrogen calculator

NK are continually working to provide new tools and information which will benefit UK farmers.

As part of NK’s nitrogen use awareness project we have designed an online nitrogen calculator to enable growers to fine-tune their application rates.  The calculator has been developed using the original ADAS calculations of 175 kg N/ha for a crop with a GAI of 3.5 at mid-flowering aiming for a 3.5 t/ha crop. 

By inputting a crop’s GAI and mineral soil nitrogen levels the calculator will determine how much additional nitrogen is required. It will provide nitrogen application recommendations based on the latest effective date by which it should be applied and, if needed, will also split applications, expanding the original ADAS model.  

Try the calculator now - select Nitrogen Calculator from the menu on the left-hand side of this page or click here.
