Techneat Engineering is launching a hire scheme at Lamma, saying it will give growers convenient and low-cost access to the company’s full range of precision application equipment.
“Hiring equipment direct from Techneat brings all the convenience and flexibility of owning a machine for a required part of the season, without the capital cost or upkeep when it’s not required, and no commitment if future cropping plans or agronomy systems should change,” says Techneat Hire manager, Rui Santos.
“For time-sensitive applications, such as nematicide application during potato planting or Avadex herbicide granules, farmers are not dependent on waiting for a contractor and can apply when convenient, in the optimum conditions.”
Rui adds that the online hire scheme gives farmers the chance to pre-plan machinery requirements ahead of the season and have access to the most up-to-date machine, which has been fully serviced by specialists
Equipment available under the scheme will be on display, including Techneat’s Weed Wizard for precision optical spot spraying of weeds in row crops.
