There’s no escaping the fact nitrogen fertiliser is...
Hi all,
This is probably going to be one of those weird threads.
So first, a bit of context. I’m an electrical engineering/robotics student here in the UK. As a part of my studies I have to design and ultimately build a robot that has real world applications. Most of my classmates are...
Thinking of going back to 24m from 36m. My boom height control system on my 36m is woeful and needs a big upgrade which is huge money so I’m thinking of going back to 24m which would also allow me to go back to granular fert instead of liquid (I’ve posted a thread on that in the cropping...
Just wondering if there's any further information out yet as to what constitutes no till in the eyes of SFI?
Is it a dts/mzuri/claydon direct into stubble?
Or is it going to be lower disturbance tine or disc?
Supposedly a claydon grain and fert meets the grant spec with the leading tine applying...
As the title suggests, is the Kuhn Quantron S2 terminal capable of Variable Seed Rate (from plans i.e SOYL) in its standard form? Are there any users of the S2 with any advice/experience of this? Or is it only possible to achieve variable seed rate sowing through ISOBUS? Drill in question is a...

Variable rate nitrogen applications could be a valuable tool for managing uneven crops this spring, urge experts.
Omnia’s Aidan Monaghan says while some crops sown before the weather broke last October have established well and show potential, others...
Whats everyone elses position. The wheats looking really hungry now and its so wet wondering whether just go and make a mess or be patient?! Must be loosing yield surely.
Hello everyone,
My team at University of Glasgow are running a project for developing a multifunctional remote controlled AI drone for fertilizing, pollination, watering and monitoring.
We'll be very happy to hear what you all think about the idea, our main goal is to make it long lasting, much...
We have applied vra P and K for years although recently Biosolids and chicken manure has made it semi redundant. We have always used SOYL to sample and create pretty maps and then prepare a recommendation. Are others still using SOYL, anyone doing anything different.
VRA nitrogen has always...
I am exploring the use of drones in agriculture and would like to get people’s opinions on the technology, both from a farmer and agronomist perspective.
For those who are unaware, at the minute, the benefits of using drones are mainly to help agronomists make quicker and more accurate...
Thinking about starting drilling wheat next week. This early drilled stuff is going in mainly after early potatoes and some overwintered stubble that has been ploughed and pressed. We have subsoiled and disc & pressed after the potatoes. All seedbeds are really good and the nice bit of rain has...
I’ve read various suggestions over the years, but wondering if there is a reliable way to thin out thick and forward rape.
The forwardness doesn’t worry me so much, but it is quite thick. It’s conventional, and the seed rate was kept up to allow for CSFB/slug losses etc, but it ended up all...

Spectral imaging as a general concept combines characteristics of imaging and spectroscopy technologies. Optical spectral imaging particularly makes use of visible, near infrared and short-wave infrared spectral range, has been demonstrated to be a very powerful tool in identifying, classifying...
Hello everyone,
We are excited to announce that our field health mobile application for farmers will soon have a new feature that allows for the creation of Variable Rate Application (VRA) maps using satellite systems. This feature will help farmers optimize their crop yields by applying the...
