Stinking Rain

Spoke to soon rain came again last Friday night, not a lot but enough to stop the harvest it is still overcast and misting rain. We have applied zinc to the paddock that we have yet to plant, we used water soluble zinc through the new GPS controlled spray unit that my brother set-up earlier this year. It is pretty cool stuff and the accuracy and ease of use was unbelievable, it logs where it has been sprayed and will not spray over a logged area, so you turn the unit on and just engage the GPS on the swath, and away you go.The photo of the screen shows litres per hectare being sprayed, litres remaining in the tank, what nozzles are on or off.
