HarvestLab 3000: New crop insights
Simon Beddows farms around 1,000 hectares of arable land in South Oxfordshire, about 60 km west of London.
Highly variable with one field having 17 different soil types, it s one of the reasons why Simon has been so enthusiastic about precision ag.
Simon has amassed a lot of data over the past few years which he uses to apply fertiliser more effectively to produce a more even yield throughout a field.
HarvestLab has already thrown up some unexpected surprises when comparing yield with protein content. In future he hopes to be able to segment loads by the amount of protein to boost the financial sustainability of his farm.
