- Emptying of effluent ponds
- Muck spreading – deal for cleaning out Herd stand-off pads & shelters
- Slurry Injection
Pond Stirring
Agitation or pond stirring is necessary in tanks and ponds ensure that the manure can be sucked into a slurry tank easily. Agitating provides a more consistent by-product that can be dispersed among paddocks. When the slurry has been mixed to a satisfactory level, it becomes kinder on pumps and stirrers, meaning fewer blockages & breakages and improved longevity of your implements.
Solid muck spreaders, Vacuum slurry tankers
Central Injection Agri started business with slurry tankers and this method of dispersing of slurry is still effective especially for solid manure. Our large slurry tanks can be filled up with slurry, and then taken to a field where we can distribute it onto the soil. The fertilizer material itself is a mix of cow feces and urine effluent which is allowed to ferment until it becomes highly nutritious for plants.
Slurry Injection
Slurry injection is the most beneficial, cost effective and less damaging than traditional muck spreading. The manure does have to be grinded into small particles than can be combined with water to create a liquid, which can then be injected into paddocks.
The liquid slurry product is injected into the ground and can stimulate boosted production of crops. Slurry injection can allow more nitrogen to be introduced into the soil. Slurry injection has become a favoured process of application in recent years, due to its reduced ammonia emission (around 70% reduction), which can preserve Nitrogen, reduce odour complaints, elimination of soil compaction and overall provide a more cost-effective agricultural service solution.
Muck Spreading
An integral part of our Ag business is Muck Spreading. For Solid Muck that cannot be used in slurry injection, disperse this effluent through a more traditional method: Muck Spreading.
However, the machinery we use provides a more efficient and fast application of muck.
Introducing our recently acquired HiSpec 3rd generation of the Xcel 1250. The redesigned XCEL 1250 maintains the patented and proven chain flail and spinning disc spreading system. It has been refined to enhance both the spread pattern and adjustability, making for far-reaching dispersal of muck.
The spreading system is capable of handling various materials, such as farmyard manure, chicken manure, compost, and sludgecake. The chain flails offer greater capacity to handle foreign objects in the manure, such as stones and cement blocks, compared to auger-type machines.
