AGRI-PULSE - When it comes to agricultural innovation, the Netherlands is a leader. And particularly in the area of precision technologies, a lot has been happening lately. Some recent innovations have been thoroughly tested and proven; others are still new but show a lot of potential. Three innovative onion farmers share their experiences with precision agriculture. 

The Thes Agro farm boasts plenty of in-house knowledge about precision techniques. In fact, such methods are everyday practice these days on its fields in the Dutch village of Burgh-Haamstede. “All our machines are GPS-guided, and we perform a lot of actions using task maps, which allow us to work in a highly location-specific way,” says the company’s Johan van der Wekken.

AGRI-PULSE – CULLINAN - Cullinan Boere-unie, die organiseerders van die jaarlikse Goliat van Gat-kompetisie, glo dat volgende jaar se wenpampoen ‘n een-tonner sal wees. As jy dus jou oog op die titel het, is dit nou die tyd om aan die werk te spring - die kweekseisoen vir volgende jaar se kompetisie is nou in volle swang. 2023 se wenpampoen was ‘n skamele 110kg minder as ‘n ton. Wykus Lamprecht, die kweker van die 890kg pampoenknewel, is ook tydens TLU SA se afgelope kongres vereer vir sy rekord-pampoen. “Ons is baie opgewonde oor die vooruitsig van nog ‘n rekord reusepampoen,” sê Henri Combrink, die voorsitter van die Cullinan Boere-unie.
