What Is the Investment Boost? From the 22nd of May 2025, businesses that invest in new productive assets—like farm equipment, machinery, and infrastructure—can claim a 20% bonus tax deduction in the year they buy the asset. This is on top of the usual depreciation claim. In simple terms, you get more back from the taxman […]
What’s the expression? “Make hay while the sun shines,” and that is exactly what Scott Connell is doing with his Nevada Tandem Axle Slurry Tanker.
Isn’t it more time-consuming? There is a perception amongst some farmers that a slurry tanker is a slow way to spread effluent and that couldn’t be further from the truth. Slurry tankers are incredibly efficient systems. It takes three minutes to load 12,000 litres of effluent into a tanker and it takes three minutes to […]
Apply Directly Ideally you’d apply FDE as soon as possible after collection. That way, there is no nutrient loss from storage and your paddocks immediately reap all the benefits. As we all know, that’s not always possible. That’s why we’d recommend a good storage solution and stirrers to agitate the FDE and prevent solids building […]
On-Farm in the Bay of Plenty with Liz Hodgson. Hear how Liz, reduced stress
and saved over $20K on fertiliser.
A comparison we often use is to imagine the difference between shaking a hose from side to side, or getting a hose and putting your finger over the edge to create a fan. Each method has its advantages, but also different levels of efficiency when it comes to spreading nutrients on the farm. Nevada RainWave™ […]
John’s story is one of resilience, resourcefulness, and forward-thinking.
The traditional method utilises an electric pump with a travelling irrigator, but there are other methods that could increase reach and efficiency. With many farms under utilising paddocks, equipment such as slurry tankers and hose reelers have the potential to spread effluent faster with less hassle. Travelling Irrigator Travelling irrigators are generally run through a […]
This can be approached either with an umbilical system, or a slurry tanker. With a RainWaveTM attachment or trailing shoe system on a slurry tanker, a paddock can easily be irrigated often to maintain optimal nutrients. Preparing Paddocks There are limitations in where effluent can be applied when a farm has an irrigation system in […]
Fabian is able to access 70% more of the farm with greater capacity to grow grass and increased days in milk.
It’s not! By changing how you view and use farm dairy effluent (FDE), you can boost your farm’s profits and improve soil health. Soil Biology: The Hidden Gem Beneath Your Feet Let’s dive into soil biology – the fascinating world beneath your boots. Your soil is teeming with life, from bacteria and fungi to earthworms […]
By upgrading to a Nevada 12,800L Tandem Slurry Tanker, Ben says, “The cost analysis is looking great.” They can now deliver 300 cubic metres in the same amount of time, nearly tripling their capability.
