Visitors to the forthcoming Precision Farming Event in Peterborough have a chance to win a year’s free use of a Yara N-Sensor simply by registering and purchasing a pre-paid ticket for the show.

This year’s event will be held on 10 March at the East of England Showground, Peterborough. Alongside the exhibition featuring the latest electronic advances from the UK’s leading suppliers, visitors will also be able to see equipment at work in the outside demonstration area.

There is also a full seminar programme, which will provide information on a range of subjects including controlled traffic farming (CTF), yield and moisture monitoring on forage harvesters and how the Yara N-Sensor targets inputs to match the requirements of the growing crops. Visitors attending seminars will be eligible for NRoSO and BASIS points.

Event organiser Andy Newbold said: “Guidance, automatic steering and variable rate applications are now a normal part of every operation on the nation’s leading farms. These farmers and contractors recognise the value this technology can add to their businesses and they are investing in equipment that is proven to save time, money and inputs. It is now an essential part of maintaining and increasing profit.

“The Precision Farming Event is a unique exhibition that brings together the leading suppliers and service providers in the industry. The format is designed to help visitors access expert information as well as have the opportunity speak to all the leading suppliers - all in one place.”

Seminar topics will look at farm-scale trials that assess the true costs and savings from using auto-steering and guidance, explain how the winner will benefit from using the Yara N-Sensor and how ISObus terminals work in practice.
