❄️ Winter puts real pressure on your pasture program.

Slower regrowth, lower dry matter, tighter rotations - the gap between what your pasture produces and what your stock need widens fast once the cold sets in.

Pasture MAXX delivers essential nutrients and biostimulants that boost dry matter production, maintain feed quality and promote faster regrowth after grazing - proven to increase pasture growth even in winter months.

The trial data from Cowra NSW, July 2025:
🌿 +42% increase in biomass vs untreated control
🌿 Green canopy cover lifted from 75% to 97.2%
🌿 Bare soil reduced from 25% to just 2.8%
🌿 Pasture Recovery Index improved by 64.3%

Applied as a foliar spray at 10-20L/ha through Autumn, Winter and Early Spring - it's the window to act now.

🔬 Two nutrients your nitrogen program can't work without: Molybdenum and Manganese.

Part 3 of our nitrogen series gets into the specific nutritional levers that drive efficient nitrogen metabolism - and why getting Mo and Mn right reduces pest pressure while improving crop performance.

Here's how the pathway works:

Molybdenum activates nitrate reductase - the enzyme that converts nitrate into nitrite, the first and rate-limiting step in nitrogen assimilation. Without sufficient Mo, nitrate accumulates in plant tissues because it can't be efficiently converted into organic nitrogen compounds.

Once Mo has done its job, Manganese takes over - activating the enzymes that convert assimilated nitrogen into proteins, enzymes, lignin and plant defence compounds. Stronger cell walls, more phenolics, better resistance to both diseases and insect pests.
The result: less soluble nitrogen accumulating in the phloem. Less nutritional quality for sap-feeding pests. Better use of every unit of nitrogen applied.

🌿 Mo and Mn for your broadacre program - that's TRACE.

Following on from Part 3 of our nitrogen series: Molybdenum and Manganese aren't just trace elements. They're the two key drivers of efficient nitrogen assimilation and plant defence compound production.

Without sufficient Mo, nitrate accumulates in plant tissues instead of being converted into proteins. Without Mn, that assimilated nitrogen can't be built into the structural and defensive compounds that protect your crop from disease and sap-feeding pests.

TRACE is Switch Ag's chelated trace mineral plant stimulant for broadacre. It contains Mo 0.15% and Mn 1.6% alongside plant-derived amino acids, organic acids, complex carbohydrates and beneficial biology - formulated to support the full nitrogen assimilation pathway from the ground up.

Better nitrogen use. Stronger crops. Lower nutritional quality in the phloem for sap-feeding pests.

📊 Better nitrogen metabolism. The trial data from N Drive backs it up.

N Drive is a foliar plant performance technology that stimulates early metabolic activation in crops - helping plants convert available N and P reserves into more effective growth, rather than simply increasing nitrogen supply.

By improving how your crop processes and assimilates nitrogen at the plant level, N Drive supports more efficient conversion into proteins and structural compounds - getting more from every unit of nitrogen already in your program.

Replicated trial results at 3L/ha:
🌾 Wheat: +1.1 tonne/ha
🥔 Potato: +3.7 tonne/ha
🌿 Cotton: +1 bale/ha

Not a replacement for your fertiliser program. A tool to increase the return on every unit applied.

🐄 We'll be at the Coota Park Blue-E Field Day this Wednesday - come say hello!

The Switch Ag agronomy team will be on the ground at 890 Goodacre Drive, Woodstock NSW on 5 August from 10am to 3pm.

We'll be there to chat about practical nutrient solutions and how a soil-first approach can support your pasture and livestock program heading into spring.

Come find us on the day. 🤝

🧬 It might not be how much nitrogen your crop has. It might be how well it's using it.

Part 2 of our nitrogen series looks at the role of foliar amino acids in improving nitrogen metabolism - and why this matters for both crop performance and sap-feeding pest pressure.

Foliar amino acids aren't a nitrogen source. They act as ready-to-use metabolic building blocks that help crops convert nitrate into proteins, enzymes and chlorophyll more efficiently - reducing the free amino acid accumulation in the phloem that sap-feeding insects depend on.

It's an important hypothesis: it may not be total plant nitrogen that determines aphid susceptibility, but the concentration of free amino acids within the phloem.

Better nitrogen use. Lower free amino acids. Less appeal to sap-feeding pests. Better crop health.

Part 3 drops next week.

✅ Better nitrogen use starts with the right building blocks.

Following on from Part 1 of our nitrogen series - if free amino acid accumulation in the phloem is what drives sap-feeding pest pressure, the question becomes: how do you reduce that accumulation without sacrificing yield?

Foliar amino acids aren't additional nitrogen. They act as ready-to-use metabolic building blocks that help crops assimilate nitrogen more efficiently into proteins, chlorophyll and enzymes - rather than leaving soluble nitrate and free amino acids to accumulate in plant tissues.

Field observations consistently show that amino acid-based nutrition programs can support nitrogen fertiliser reductions without compromising yield. Less accumulation in the phloem means less nutritional appeal to the pests that feed on it.

Switch Ag's Amino is a plant-derived full spectrum amino acid designed to support exactly this. Better nitrogen assimilation. Better crop performance. Lower pest-attracting phloem profile.

🐛 More nitrogen doesn't always mean a better crop. Sometimes it just means more pests.

Here's something most fertiliser programs don't account for: sap-feeding insects like aphids, whiteflies, psyllids and leafhoppers don't respond to total plant nitrogen. They respond to the concentration of free amino acids in your crop's phloem.

Excess nitrogen - especially readily available nitrate - increases those free amino acids. It promotes soft, succulent tissue growth, suppresses plant defence pathways, and speeds up aphid reproduction and population growth.

The key amino acids driving this: glutamine, glutamate, asparagine and aspartate. When these accumulate in the phloem, pest pressure follows.

The take-home: optimise your nitrogen supply. Don't maximise it.

Winter is when pasture performance separates the good from the great.

Our Pasture MAXX trial results from Cowra say it all.

Treated plots vs untreated control:

Green canopy cover: 97.2% vs 75.0%.
Bare soil/gap: 2.8% vs 25.0%.
Pasture Recovery Index: 11.5 vs 7.0 (+64.3%).
Active green canopy: 66.9% vs 39.4% (+69.8%).
Biomass production: +42% increase over control.

Better nutrient density.

Faster recovery after grazing.

Higher yield potential.

At a time of year when feed availability is typically at its tightest, Pasture MAXX delivered measurable, replicated results across three trial sites in the Central West.

If your pasture is going dormant this winter, it might be worth asking whether it has what it needs to bounce back.

💸 Fertiliser costs keep rising. The last thing you need is nitrogen walking out the door before your crop can use it.

N Drive is a foliar plant performance technology that stimulates early metabolic activation in crops - helping plants convert available N and P reserves into more effective growth, rather than simply increasing nitrogen supply.

Nitrogen lost to volatilisation, leaching and inefficient uptake is money you've already spent. N Drive helps your crop hold onto it.
✅ Compatible with existing spray programs
✅ Foliar-applied, easy to add to your current schedule
✅ Backed by replicated trial data and the Switch Ag agronomy team

Replicated trial results at 3L/ha:
🌾 Wheat: +1.1 tonne/ha
🥔 Potato: +3.7 tonne/ha
🌿 Cotton: +1 bale/ha
