Using Precision Agriculture to Improve Crop Performance and Grower ReturnsTo investigating if applying fertiliser according to productivity zones is more profitable than blanket applications of fertiliser across the whole paddock. We aimed to design trials to demonstrate to growers that matching fertiliser inputs to productivity zones will increase whole paddock profitability compared to blanket applications of fertiliser. We also aimed to use off the shelf tools (Silverfox/Sky Plan, Nulogic etc) that growers could access to enable them to follow our procedures to adopt VRT across the whole farm. |

BEST TM21 fertiliser trialThe experience from trial work with TM21 in Canada and Vietnam has been that farmers have been able to reduce some of their inputs as well as maintain or increase their yield. BEST Australia set up a long-term trial at the Liebe Group Long Term Trial Site (LTRS) comparing fertiliser rates at three different input levels. This trial will continue over the next few years. During that time, BEST will be evaluating the trial at LTRS to show that fertiliser efficiency increases by using TM21 in Austr |
