The first crop Michael Baker of P&A Services variably drilled was a crop of Propino, in spring 2017 and despite his initial surprise at how high the seed rate was, he got a very even crop which was also his highest yielding crop of spring barley ever, at 7.6t/ha.
Working with his agronomist Andrew Buckberry, maps for each field were created from satellite imagery, within Omnia. “Maps of soil type, weed and slug pressure were overlaid on top of each other and used to create a variable drilling plan.”
“This spring we were asked if we wanted to trial the new Connect app, which would allow us to streamline the process and simplify the transfer of files using an iPad.”
It’s been so simple to use, says Michael. “Andrew can send me the maps straight to the iPad, I get in the cab and that’s it! It has completely transformed how we use the application plans.”
