Variable Rate Ash - A Precision Ag Case Study

In this video, Burdekin sugarcane grower Andrew takes us through the history of one of his blocks and how he decided that applying variable rate mill ash would assist with managing his soil constraints. Andrew utilised precision ag datasets to understand the soil zones in his paddock so he could apply mill ash to specific parts that needed it. He applied the same precision ag principles he'd previously learned through the Precision To Decision project to increase future yields on this block, and says he hopes to eventually apply them across his whole farm. Precision to Decision and Point of Difference projects are funded by the partnership between the Australian Governement's Reef Trust and the Great Barrier Reef Foundation, and Farmacist.
