Increased Gross Margin per Hectare

Variably applying Nitrogen according to crop requirements means the optimum rate of N is achieved for all areas of the field resulting, in increased gross margin.

The greater the variability in soil Nitrogen supply, the greater the benefit, with up to 12% increases possible. The increased gross margin from N Sensor is a result of both yield and quality improvements. Not only does this reduce the number of combining days required, it also reduces the total combine capacity requirement.

Improved Yield and Quality

Applying the optimum N rate to all areas of the field improves yield and also gives significant evenness in the grain. Factors which both increase profitability.

More Efficient Use of Nitrogen

Applying the exact crop Nitrogen requirements improves efficiency and economics and also minimizes the effect on the environment.

Improved Combine Performance and Harvest Conditions

Variable applications of Nitrogen as a response to variable soil Nitrogen supply helps even up the crop canopy. With this comes reduced lodging and increased harvesting efficiency, all serving to improve the output of the combine.

Can be Used Independently or in Conjunction with DGPS

By measuring the crop and applying the recommended application in one operation, the Yara N-Sensor works independently of GPS systems. However, where Nitrogen application maps are required it can easily be linked to a DGPS system.

'Real Time' Sensing and Application

Allows for crop information to be collected, processed and applications made on the go.

Easy To Use

N Sensor has been designed to be user friendly. The 'in cab' computer is clear and simple to operate and once set up works automatically while spreading or spraying.
