Jeff McMillan, Willow Air Limited, South OtagoJeff McMillan says there have been a lot of changes in the fertiliser industry and with increases in price, farmers are wanting to try something different. “Fine particle fertiliser is a new innovation that we want to be part of, and we know it gives 100% coverage of product on the ground” says Jeff.This excellent coverage and even spread is one of the key’s to fine particle fertiliser – it means less product needs to be applied per hectare to get a great result, compared with traditional fertilisers. Fine Particle Fertiliser is the same as your traditional fertiliser, just ground down to a fine powder. It is an option that many farmers are turning to as they investigate which fertiliser will give them more bang for their buck! Jeff says there is a further cost saving that farmers can make, as it is possible for the plane to do two jobs in one. If you are wanting clover seed or swede seed applied, it can be put on at the same time as your fine particle fertiliser. Not only a cost saving, but a kick-start for the seed as it has all the nutrients it needs, readily available. |
