Maize tests in France
Same seed variety, same fertilisation time – this is how AKRA won over this customer
At Agritechnica 2023, Konstantin Karner caught up with Mr Martin from France to talk about his successful experience using AKRA products. In 2022, he carried out a test where he fertilised one side of his maize field with AKRA products and the other without. Due to the extreme heatwave, the field without AKRA products dried out significantly. It was clear to see that the field treated with AKRA products was far greener and more vital. He managed to achieve unbelievable nitrogen savings of 50%.
The video he showed us features impressive drone recordings that show the extreme difference between the two fields.
