🔁 PLEASE SHARE with anyone who should be there.
🧠 We’re co-hosting three half-day workshops with Niab over the next couple of weeks to test-drive our brand new Nutrient Navigator — a map-based, pre-populated tool to make compliant nutrient plans quickly and easily.
🌱 Our previous workshop at Yeo Valley HQ showed we were on the right track. Now we’re running three more with the completed platform — your chance to make sure it works the way you need it to, and suggest improvements directly to the dev team before it's full release on 18th August.
🗓 The George Hotel Penrith | Wed 6 Aug – https://lnkd.in/eUiH-8ix
🗓 Darts Farm, Exeter | Tue 12 Aug – https://lnkd.in/eVXtRpYE
🗓 Sparsholt College Group, Hampshire | Wed 13 Aug - https://lnkd.in/ema24JZN
🎟️ Free to attend ( 👏 Innovate UK) + proper lunch included 😋 (see pic below of lunch after the last workshop). Most importantly, they're a chance to influence the tool and make sure it works for you.
If you’re new to us: Soil Benchmark are an agronomy software platform. We launched in November 2023 offering Soil Management Plans for SFI. Our platform (https://lnkd.in/ekMfrq3p) is now used on 10.8% of England’s farmland, we've added Manure Management Plans, and Nutrient Management completes the set 🧩.
🧠 What makes it different?
🌍 Key inputs pre-loaded: soil type, rainfall, and elevation are automatically built in.
♻️ Existing info reused: cropping, soil samples, and spreading events are carried over.
🧾 Drag-and-drop soil samples: our AI importer reads and tags them, no manual entry.
⚡ Intuitive field inputs: easily add grazing/silage sequences or arable sowing dates.
⚙️ Live recs as you tweak: see RB209-based nutrient plans update instantly.
🧩 Multi-field editing: update multiple fields at once, with bespoke recs for each.
📋 Compliant reports in one click: export clear plans for Environment Agency, Rural Payments Agency, or Red Tractor.
