Why Rent Farm Scales?
Nutrient Management = saving money
Good nutrient management requires knowing actual crop yields and amounts of nutrient applied. Weighing a few loads of silage as they come off the field will give a more accurate estimate of the total yield, as well as weighing loads of fertilizer and manure as they are applied. Together they help determine health of fields and management changes needed and can save the farmer money.
Rental will be in the form of a donation (tax deductable)
Call 802-295-7942, Ext. 11 and ask for Linda or email: linda.schneider@vt.nacdnet.net to reserve scales.
