At NitroFert, we understand that grass is the most important crop on Irish dairy farms.
Our DairySelect range has been developed specifically to maximise grass growth, improve forage quality, and support higher milk yields – helping farmers get more from every acre.
I have been using DairySelect Pasture for the past 8 years on my paddocks and get on extremely well with it. It melts easily into the ground & the team in NitroFert are always very helpful with any queries I have.
Since we started using DairySelect the grass in the paddocks responds much more quickly than other products, leaving no hulls on top of the soil. NitroFert fertilisers tick a lot of the boxes for us - consistency, quality & most importantly return on investment.
I used DairySelect for the first time this year on both grazing and silage ground and find it has improved grass covers in all fields where it was spread, particularly those which were affected by drought.
I use DairySelect Cut+ and find that the higher sulphur content has helped prevent lockup of soil nutrients resulting in better grass growth and was faster acting than others particularly in dry weather.
Why Choose DairySelect?
- Balanced Nutrition for Grass Growth
DairySelect fertilisers are precisely formulated with the right blend of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium and Sulphur, designed to match the nutritional needs of Irish soils and grass swards. - Improved Grass Quality & Palatability
By optimising nutrient availability, DairySelect supports leafy, high-sugar, high-protein grass – ensuring cows graze on forage that boosts intake and performance. - Better Milk Yields & Fertility
Well-fed grass drives higher energy and protein in the diet, which in turn leads to improved milk solids, cow health, and fertility. - Efficient Use of Nutrients
Our specially balanced formulas mean fewer losses and better nutrient uptake, ensuring value for money and compliance with environmental regulations. - Tailored for Irish Conditions
Developed with local farming in mind, DairySelect performs in the variable weather and diverse soil types found across Ireland, helping you make the most of the growing season.

More grass grown, more milk produced, and a more sustainable farming system.

A Fertiliser Designed for Performance
The NitroFert DairySelect range has been specially developed to meet the needs of modern Irish grassland farms. These high-performance fertilisers are highly soluble, delivering a quicker growth response compared to many alternatives on the market.
Thanks to their smaller, uniform granules, DairySelect products achieve a more consistent spread pattern with more particles landing per square metre – ensuring faster, more even grass recovery after grazing or cutting. Every granule is crafted to a top-quality standard: low dust, high density, round shape, and excellent strength. This means cleaner handling, less waste, and reliable performance in the spreader. The product’s strength and density also allow it to spread evenly up to 24 metres, as independently verified by spreader testing specialists SCS Ltd (UK).
