For Nathan Scholz and the team at First Australian Farmland, coordinating fertiliser during Central NSW sowing windows had become a challenge. Urea purchasing was delayed until after sowing, resulting in potential delays between sowing and spreading. To ensure ultimate crop production and yield, it was identified that there was a need for more efficient, multi-stream paddock delivery. The farm also needed greater on-site storage to reduce reliance on truck turnaround during critical periods.
Nathan was drawn to the AGRIBIN Fertiliser Bin, selecting it for its compatibility with high-demand workflows and its year-round practicality.
After two harvests, the Fert Bin has proven its value across multiple fronts: allowing for the use of three augers simultaneously, offering capacity for over 120 tonnes of paddock storage capacity with their existing RTB and chaser bin, and providing quicker, cleaner, and safer filling with co-hitch and hydraulics.
With MAP stored on-site at silos, Nathan’s AGRIBIN Fertiliser Bin now ensures urea is ready and flowing when needed; no downtime, no delivery delays. When crunch time arrives, Nathan and his team spring into action with simple setup and operation and crucial in-paddock storage capability. And as they work, clean emptying ensures there’s no residue wasted or left behind.
With the AGRIBIN Fertiliser Bin now firmly part of their operation, Nathan’s team is looking toward further gains in efficiency and scale. The ability to pre-position product and handle multiple inputs simultaneously has transformed their operation for the better.
