Keeping it Simple

Precision farming and the use of yield mapping has been available since the late 1990’s yet its adoption is still limited. At Soil Advisor we believe one of the biggest problems is that there is little grower interaction. Pretty maps and high flying science often get lost in translation. Our aim is to keep the results and practical advice simple so that it can be readily used and applied on farm. We offer the agronomic experience to tailor the information so that you gain the best possible return on investment for your money.

Future Proofing your Business

Land has been farmed for 10,000 years it would be foolish to say we don’t know how to use our primary asset – SOIL!  Looking forward we will need to feed an increasing world population on a diminishing area with tighter environmental criteria. Understanding our soils, balancing nutrition and managing increased weather variability will be critical.

The cost of production per tonne will be instrumental in your ability to remain profitable as the subsidy system changes.

Cost Effective Solutions

The object of any precision farming is to ensure that the right input is targeted to the correct place.
By gathering information from satellite imagery, yield maps and personal knowledge of soil types we can ensure that the appropriate rates are applied across the field.  The example below clearly demonstrates different areas showing the opportunity to have sub– divisions and tailored inputs.
