Wilfred Maddocks Ltd of Newport Shropshire has utilised the services of Agri-tech for more than twenty years.
In 2018 the Company invested in two of Agri-tech's Sentek Continuous soil moisture monitoring probes to help schedule the irrigation of the Farm's packing potato crop. Agri-tech provided the training on the probe data, enabling the Management team to interpret the data "live", viewing crop daily water use, soil moisture deficits, and soil temperatures via the Agri-tech client Login area on our PC and SMART devices.
This enabled us to make important decisions on our water management with confidence and ease, supplying the exact quantity of water required at the correct time. We believe this to be a vital tool in our management of the potato crop, and helps support our aim of increased sustainability within our potato production.
In a dry year such as 2018, we were much better placed to manage our water supply, ensuring quality and yield was optimised. As a result of this W Maddocks has invested in more probes for the 2019 season and beyond, to cover our total potato production area. Agri-tech will be instrumental in providing the advice supporting the hardware, and we look forward to working with them in the years ahead.

Agri-tech's weather station has changed our whole farming philosophy. Knowledge of your own weather data has enabled us to construct degree day and winter chill models across individual cultivars and most of our pests within the context of our own changing climate.
