Superior fertiliser cost management through operational control and R&D
• GAR utilises GPS-guided aerial manuring to cover expansive plantation hectarage
• With this advanced aerial manuring, fertilisersare applied more effectively compared to manual application
• Fertiliser program developed with CIRAD1
• Accurate fertiliser plan to optimize benefit especially with more volatile climate conditions
• Application and dosage based on cost/benefit analysis using leaf sampling (“blood test”), analysing condition of each plantation
