Prices for artificial fertilizers continue to rise and fertilizer manufacturers are limiting production. The question is whether sufficient fertilizer will be available. Reason enough to take a critical look at the use of organic manure. As a specialist in the field of efficient manure application, we are happy to tell you all about this.
Artificial fertilizers are more expensive than ever. Due to the high costs, mainly caused by increased energy costs, fertilizer manufacturers are limiting their production. This threatens the availability of fertilizer for the coming season (Source: Agrarheute). There is a high need for a sustainable alternative to ensure optimal crop growth in the 2022 season as well.
Sustainable and efficient manure application
Since the early 1970s, Veenhuis has been active in sustainable manure injection. Previously, manure was mainly seen as a waste product that had to be applied to the land in an environmentally friendly way. In the meantime, research has shown that organic manure is a valuable nutrient. In addition, fertilization at the roots of the plant is by far the most efficient method of organic manure application.
Optimal nitrogen utilization for maximal crop yield
Efficient and sustainable agriculture is becoming increasingly important. Not only because of the rising fertilizer prices and possible scarcity, but also because of the increasing global demand for food. Ensuring minimum emissions with maximum yield from organic manure is therefore more important than ever. Both the Veenhuis grassland injectors and the arable land injectors have proven to be more efficient in nitrogen utilization than other fertilization techniques and ensure an optimal crop yield with minimal input of artificial fertilizer. The graphs below compare the nitrogen utilization and the crop yield with the various application methods.
The right Veenhuis injector for your specific situation
Veenhuis has a wide range of injectors for grass- and arable land. The Euroject is available in two variants, the Pro and the Twin. Of these two, the Pro is the multifunctional machine that can be used on grassland, in standing grain crops and on uncultivated arable land. The Twin is extremely suitable for grassland manuring on a hard and dry bottom.
The Ecoject grassland injector is characterized by its robust simplicity and can be used behind various trailed tanks.
Veenhuis has different types of injectors for manure application on arable land. There are three different versions with harrow tines and there is a disc harrow version, which cuts the stubble, turns the soil and injects manure in a single pass.
Future-proof manure application
The efficient use of organic fertilizers is more important than ever. Prices for artificial fertilizers are rising, the demand for food is rising worldwide and the legislation on nitrogen emissions is stricter. Veenhuis has been innovating for years on future-proof solutions for manure application. This allows you as a professional to fertilize in the most efficient way, whereby optimal crop growth is a given.
