Salinity and potato production (Part 4 of 4): organic soil amendments, biologicals & biostimulants

This is the final fact sheet in a series of four for potato growers exploring monitoring and management options to overcome many soil and water constraints.

With a growing interest in the area of soil health and the wide range of products available, this fact sheet explores organic soil amendments, biologicals and biostimulants to help growers understand what these products are and how they work.

This series of factsheets were developed by Serve-Ag and E.E. Muir & Sons as part of the Hort Innovation project PT16001 - Impact of groundwater quality on the management of centre-pivot-grown potato crops.
