competition. For full entry details see first page of this insert
FARMERS in the UK are turning with increasing confidence to the internet to search for information to aid business decisions.
Currently, farmers use the internet for personal use such as e-mail and banking, but increasingly so for news, weather, technical and product information from the wide range of agricultural web-sites now available. There has been an explosion of websites over the last two years in the farming community, with over 70% of the supply industry currently having a web-site.
Last year Kemira Agriculture launched its new web-site.
This is a far cry from the online brochure-type, static sites that were popular a couple of years ago. The new Kemira web-site has valuable information ranging from detailed descriptions of plant growth for schools and colleges to an interactive tool to calculate your nitrogen requirement and save your field information online.
Fertiliser planning is an important part of a crop nutrition plan and to this end the web-site offers other tools such as Useful Conversions which displays the amount of nutrients in organic manures and P and K off-takes. Soil and tissue analysis and advice are also important parts of the planning process so farmers can take online advantage of a contact facility to order our services and gain free advice from our team of nationwide technical managers. Depending on the depth or level of Technical Information you need, the website also offers information on the latest research and development carried out on hot topics such as sulphur and nitrogen.
