Field Tools
SRA has developed a tool to make calibrating a cog driven fertiliser applicator simpler.
CogCalculator is a Microsoft Excel based tool that will give you a recommendation on the cogs to use to achieve your target application rate.
While the tool doesn’t stop you from having to collect fertiliser in a bucket over a specified distance and weighing it, it does do the rate and cog configuration calculations for you.
NutriCalcTM is an online nutrient management tool and part of our SIX EASY STEPS nutrient management package. Jointly developed with the National Centre for Engineering in Agriculture (NCEA) this tool can help you develop nutrient management plans for use on-farm.

This calculator has been developed to assist in comparing the gross margins of two different practices in an on-farm demonstration. Further information on how to set up an on-farm demonstration can be found in the on-farm trials tool.
