Fertiliser Calibration and Spreaders
Calibration Benefits
No matter how good the fertiliser plan, inaccurate spreading will result in higher environmental impact, reduced yields and lower profits.
GrowHow recognises the importance of maximising the effectiveness/value of fertiliser and work closely with the calibration specialists SCS Spreader & Sprayer Testing Limited who offer a reliable, well organised calibration service. Accurate spreader settings, correct application rates and a thorough inspection of the machine make the service good value for money.

GrowHow also liase closely with spreader manufacturers to ensure that spreader settings are as up-to-date as possible. This is achieved by annually providing fertiliser for spreader manufacturers to assess at their test halls in Europe. The test hall determines, under controlled conditions, the spreader settings for each machine at all spreading widths; they are then published in their handbooks and on their websites.

GrowHow strongly recommends that you set up your spreader for both application rate and spread pattern.
