Nitrobar “Accuracy in Agriculture”

Nitrobar has been developed and refined by S&K over several years to be the precise and accurate liquid fertiliser or Bio Fluid placement system offered today. With many systems sold and working all over the UK and Ireland. It has been designed specifically to be fitted to most models of tillage machinery, drills and planters and enables fluid to be placed exactly where its required for good crop establishment. We can also offer dual fluid systems so two fluids can be applied at the same time. It has been proven that the close positioning of fertiliser in relation to the crop roots can have a major effect on the nutrient use efficiency of the fertiliser. Precision placement of fluids offers significant advantages over broadcast applications, namely huge cost savings, precision positioning guaranteeing the nutrients are dissolved, in turn offering a faster crop response. We offer a choice of control systems either Smart Control Pro a stand alone control system with colour terminal and joystick or an ISOBUS system for use with *compatible tractors both systems ensure application rate accuracy, via speed related rate control, DGPS section control, field mapping and download. *(compatible tractor must have: front mounted linkage, front ISOBUS connection socket, front D/A hydraulic spool services, DGPS receiver and task control unlocked)

The key benefits are:

• Huge cost savings!
• Reduced fertiliser rates as placement is in narrow bands precisely where the plant is growing.
• Aids compliance with NVZ regulations.
• Avoids feeding weed populations between plant rows.
• Increased efficiency as it combines two operations in one saving time and fuel.
