* Leave enough lines below each FID, to allow for the maximum number of applications that are likely to be made. Note that columns 'l' and 'm' are split. This is to allow cumulative values to be entered, where multiple applications are made. You should enter the available N in the left column and enter the cumulative total in the right column.
**Assume that 10% of the total N applied becomes available to the second crop following application. This figure should be carried forward to next years Fertiliser and Manure Plan (enter in column 'd' of Table A or column 'k' of Table B).
