1. Accuracy of Differential Rate Application Technology for Aerial Spreading of Granular Fertiliser Within New Zealand

Aerial topdressing of granular fertilizer is common practice on New Zealand hill country farms because of the challenging topography. Ravensdown Limited is a New Zealand fertilizer manufacturer, supplier and applicator, who are funding research and development of differential rate application from aircraft. The motivation for utilising this technology is to improve the accuracy of fertilizer application and fulfil the variable nutrient requirements of hill country farms.  The capability of... I.J.

2. Hyperspectral Imaging to Measure Pasture Nutrient Concentration and Other Quality Parameters

Managing pasture nutrient requirements on large hill country sheep and beef properties based on information from soil sampling is expensive because of the time and labor involved. High levels of error are also expected as these properties are often greatly variable and it is therefore extremely difficult to sample intensively enough to capture this variation. Extensive sampling was also not considered viable as there was no effective means of spreading fertilizer with a variable rate capability... I.J. Yule, R.R. Pullanagari, G. Kereszturi, M.E.
