Challenge
Our Irrigation customers understand the requirement to maximise the return for each megalitre of water applied and they are equally conscious of the need for sustainability.
The increasing resource scarcity and competing uses for water means that irrigators face the challenge to enhance their efficiency and minimise their impact on the environment.
Approach
Our team will develop a customised program to address your concerns within an agreed budget. We deliver an end to end solution taking the headache out of sampling, testing, data generation and prescription files for you farm (VR) machinery and equipment.
For some growers, it may be a target pH level for others it may be a financial budget for Lime or zone creation for a Pivot. These goals are agreed between yourself, your advisor (where relevant) and PA
Typically we start with around 25% of your property in the first year so you can understand the process and benefits of the PA approach. To see a typical approach click here. As you can see the benefit of the system, we can expand in subsequent years and for some attributes retest every 2-3 years to confirm the paddock variability is being reduced and your goals are being met.
We provide and end to end solution that includes
- Generation of Digital Farm Maps
- Creation of Soil Management Plans
- Extensive science backed, paddock grid soil sampling
- Certified (ASPAC) laboratory testing of all samples
- Spatial reports of the soil testing results (click here for a sample)
- Insights from data generated
- Variable Rate (VR) solutions produced in consultation with your advisor (click here for a sample). Lime, Phosphorus, Potash and Gypsum are the best selling nutrient solutions. We produce Variable Rate Irrigation (VRI) solutions.
