1 Benefits f using an On Cmbine Analyser: Mnitr grain quality at a high spatial density The Mdel 3000H prvides data at apprximately every 17meters dwn the paddck. In cmparisn t taking 5 in field samples and analysing them using a benchtp NIR, the Mdel 3000H prvides a cmprehensive picture f what is happening acrss the paddck. Prtein Map Yield Map

2 Differential harvesting and strage based n quality The fastest return n investment frm using the Mdel 3000H cmes frm in paddck segregatin f crps. Either by differentially harvesting the paddck, ie, harvesting sectins f high prtein grain in rder t blend with lw prtein grain and thereby capture a price increase by mving t the next grade, r using the bin average t direct lads int separate strage lcatins in rder t capture the best quality grains and t blend pst harvest.

3 Prtein, Misture and Yield maps enable creatin f true site specific grss margin maps By creating a Grss Margin Map f paddcks, then farmers can see if they are making mney r lsing mney acrss their paddcks. There maybe sectins f the paddck where the margin is negative. This may lead t sme crrective actin r t changes in the paddck bundaries r crpping schedules. Nitrgen remval maps t be used in mass balance fertiliser requirement calculatins Using a simple frmula: Nitrgen Remved = Yield * Prtein% * 17% Nitrgen/Prtein A Nitrgen Remval Map can be created frm a Prtein Map and Yield Map. Understanding that at the minimum, the same amunt f Nitrgen that has been remved frm the sil needs t replenished using fertilizer, allws the farmer t develp a Variable Nitrgen Fertilizatin prgram fr next year. The pssible savings in using VNF ver blanket fertilizatin are between 5 and 30% depending n the paddck.

4 Overlaying Prtein and Yield maps with ther data fr better diagnstic insights int availability and uptake f Nitrgen The Dilutin Thery suggests that if the Yield is high then the Prtein will be lw. This may nt always be the case and sil and misture may be the limiting factrs rather than Nitrgen availability. By verlaying the Prtein and Yield Maps and cmputing a Crrelatin Map and a Significance Map, then a simple Green, Red and Blue Znes can be identified. Green is where additinal fertilizer will prbably nt result in significantly higher yields and prtein. Red is where additinal Nitrgen shuld realize an increase in bth prtein and yield. And Blue is where there are ther prblems effecting the crp, ie, sil, ph, misture.

5 Full impact f N trials and VRF applicatins can be measured Many farmers run field strip trials fr Nitrgen, Phsphrus, Sulphur and ther nutrient. The Mdel 3000H can prvide data which can shw the real impact and effects f the strip trials. By cmbining the Yield and Prtein data, the farmer can quantify the benefits f making changes t their fertilizatin plans r even the varieties f seed they plant.
