Products: Aerial fertiliser application

Why use aerial topdressing?
For many farmers in New Zealand, topdressing with fertiliser is complicated by the challenging terrain on their land. When land is too steep for safe access by groundspreading machinery, aerial topdressing is the only feasible alternative if soil fertility is to be maintained.
