Make Your Own Nitrogen Fertiliser On Farm
What if you could make your own nitrogen fertiliser… using air and water? This dairy farmer is replacing urea and slashing input costs. Join this channel to get access to perks: / @farmlearningtim In this episode of Farm Learning, we visit a Western Victorian dairy farm where urea has been replaced with an on-farm nitrogen production system. Using a compact plasma reactor, this system converts air and water into plant-available nitrogen — delivering a low-cost, low-energy alternative to traditional fertilisers. We look at: Real on-farm results after removing urea Cost comparison vs traditional fertiliser programs Pasture performance and livestock outcomes How to transition without risking production The science behind plasma nitrogen generation This is not theory — it’s being used right now in commercial dairy systems. If you're dealing with rising fertiliser costs, carbon pressure, or looking to increase farm self-reliance, this is worth understanding.
