Controlled release fertilizer Agrocote Max was tested in a trial at the precision agriculture trial station of Van Den Borne Potatoes (NL). Trial progress and results were accurately measured with help of drones, soil scans, water quality and biomass tests. The field with Agrocote Max showed the highest yield. 14% higher than the field with N-inhibitor (DMPP) and field with the standard treatment with conventional fertilizers.

Jacob van den Borne explains how the trial was set up.
