Just getting ready for some fertiliser spreading work in Cowra.
Spreader Accuracy:
Contract Spreader’s Agrispread AS120T and Case 335 tractor is fitted with Trimble system and AS controller that provide strong data feedback and control during operation. It allows agronomists and farmers to send variable rate application maps to the machine. I think will see a quick take up of variable rate lime and gypsum spreading to save farmer input costs and increase productivity.
The system also offers real-time data reporting providing scrutiny of where the spreader is and check its application rates and other diagnostics. It gives the grower absolute confidence in what the spreading contractor is doing and when it is doing it and gives us complete oversight of the job.
With a large 16m3 hopper and 36m spread width on urea, the AS120T spread can cover a lot of country in a day.
