Transforming Agriculture with Technology
Our Agricultural Services
At BP Ag, we understand the challenges farmers face today. From shrinking weather windows and unpredictable weather forecast's to volatile markets. Precision ag has never been more crucial to your business.
Why Choose Precision Ag?
Money: Spend wisely and save where it counts.
Sustainability: Protect the environment while meeting industry demands.
Modern Technologies: Stay ahead with innovative solutions.
Good Farming Practices: Work smarter for better outcomes.
Sustainability in Action:
Sustainability is at the core of modern farming, and new schemes in UK agriculture are transforming how food is produced. Cover cropping is an excellent example, offering benefits like reduced leaching, improved soil structure, and increased organic matter. We can spread seed mixes in standing crops, quickly and efficiently. Giving a more accurate spread pattern than a fert spreader, and taking the pressure off during one of the busiest times of the year.
The Role of Modern Technology:
Modern technology is revolutionizing agriculture by saving time, reducing stress, and improving efficiency. Drones, once considered futuristic, are now a vital part of farm operations. While they won’t replace traditional equipment, drones can complement it, enhancing operations and unlocking opportunities previously unavailable.
Good Farming Practices Made Simple:
Effective farming means applying the right inputs at the right time. But changing seasons can make it challenging to fertilize and spray in ideal conditions, leading to issues like tramline rutting. This not only affects the appearance of fields but also complicates harvest operations. With drone-applied fertilizers and chemicals, soil structure remains intact, and application timings can be met with precision. The result? Better outcomes, less damage, and more peace of mind for farm owners and managers.
How BP Ag can help:
Drone Spraying and Spreading
The list of chemicals the (CRD) Chemical Regulations Department are passing for application via drone is ever growing. With drone spraying and spreading operations growing in UK Agriculture, the opportunities and benefits we can offer your business are developing by the day!
Along side pesticides, all fertilisers and micro nutrients can be applied at either a flat rate or variable rate, using prescription maps.
Any granular fertiliser or seed mixes can also be applied using the Revocast 3 attachment. We work closely with Nickerson Seeds who can create custom seed mixes for SFI schemes, cover crops and are specialist's when it comes to variety selection.
Soil Sampling Services:
Understanding your soil is crucial. Our services include Standard PK, Organic matter and PCN sampling. This valuable data helps you allocate resources effectively—spending only where it’s needed and saving money where it’s not. We can offer GPS Grid sampling or W pattern. Producing variable rate maps for your farm. For more information please send us a message below.
Slug Pelleting:
We also offer a contract slug pelleting service. This is done via quad, which is equipped with GPS for more accurate application and a variable speed disk to ensure an even coverage.
