I am looking to buy into Frontier's Soyl/iSoyl, mainly to move towards applying liquid nitrogen at variable rates. Does anyone have any experience with this service? How well does it work? I have an Amazone UF-02 bought 1 year ago with an Amatron 4 screen, will a link up to this be seamless?

Does such a programme exist here yet? I’m after something that I can input bought in nutrients, carbon sequestration in soil organic matter, grassland, hedges and trees then work out what leaves the farm as grain, straw, meat, milk etc as well as an attempt at NPK leaching etc. The NZ...

In the last twelve months, maize markets (Chicago - nearby) have undergone quite a change. From August Chicago maize futures (nearby) climbed 151% to briefly peak at the $7.70/bsl mark ($304.2/t) in May 2021. As we know Chinese purchases have supported the gains. But, if we look forward a couple...

The old SFP was stuck in the 90's at £70 / acre or thereabouts. ELMS apparently is £70/ acre Carbon sequestering is, you guessed it.........around £70 / acre. Coincidence ? Or is this the universal figure arrived at behind closed doors that the bigger operators will accept without kicking up...

What’s everybody doing? Our milling winter wheats were planted mid October to mid November and so far had 165kg N. We are due another 80kg (liquid) to go for group 1 spec but whilst the calendar says go the crops I think are a month behind due to the dry spell. N2 went on a month ago but it’s...

As we all know, better planting progress for winter and spring cereals has laid the foundations for an increased UK grain production figure. But nearly a month without substantial rainfall across the UK has threatened crop health, with yields likely affected. Production figure forecasts from...

We have not had a useable satellite image since late January so are unable to do any up to date VRA N plans. Given that all these services supposedly use the same satellites, is everyone else in the same boat or am i incredibly unlucky that each of the subsequent ~ 8 passes (approx 1 per week)...

I am currently using Gatekeeper for crop recording and mapping/precision farming. There seems to be a reasonable choice for the crop recording alternatives, however options for the mapping and precision farming side of things seem more limited. What are other people using to do mapping and...

Hello to all. I was wondering what the farming community thinks to using multispectral Agricultural drones for their crops and land. It would be nice to see what you think to this.

Featured Solution - Data Diagnostic Insights - The Rise of the Digital Farm Five years ago, when people started talking about Digital Farming and Big Data, most were not sure what this was or how it related to field base crop production. Since then, writes Keith Norman, the speed of technical...

Up for your consideration is a RedEdge-M Multispectral Camera by MicaSense in superb condition. No damage or faults with this camera as it has always been maintained and handled professionally. It has a compact design and is lightweight to work with as many drones as possible, it comes complete...

What are people doing to monitor wheat as it is growing? Plant counts / tiller counts / ears etc? Brix? I want to put a few more things in place to monitor the crop as it’s growing and I’m trying to work out what is worth while and what’s not. I do some tissue and grain analysis already. My...

Is anyone using any of the imaging systems in anger? There seems to be a plethora of these appearing and I have meddled with the Agrii contour system. They seem to raise more questions than they answer and on generally light soil they just show lack of moisture, IMHO. They could however be used...

Newbie to the forum although long time viewer. With recent updates to hardware and software on our 24m sprayer, we now have the ability to apply prescription maps at individual nozzle resolution. Now my search continues for some useful data to put into the sprayer... I am starting simple and...

Silly question but how does it work ?

I drill with a Vaderstad Rapid with the iPad interface. Is there a DIY method of achieving variable seed rate using self generated maps? Thanks.

Just been playing on the demo and it seems pretty simple compared to gatekeeper. A few things I cant find: is there a stock centre ? how good is the financial side of it? I see it now has nutrient planning and sentinel on it.

How? Who? I'm looking for something less than 3 months old. Google Earth's most recent image is July 2018.
