For generations, New Zealand agriculture has excelled at producing some of the world's highest quality raw materials.

Wheat, milk, meat, wool and horticultural products have earned international reputations for quality and consistency, yet many of the processed foods filling supermarket shelves continue to rely heavily on imported ingredients.

That creates an interesting contradiction. We are exceptionally good at growing food, but we often leave the value-adding to someone else.

There was a time when the pickup header was little more than a conveyor between the windrow and the forage harvester. As harvesting capacity has increased, that thinking has changed.

Today's self-propelled forage harvesters can process extraordinary volumes of crop, but they remain entirely dependent on one thing: maintaining a constant, unrestricted flow of material into the feed rollers. Every interruption, surge or hesitation reduces throughput, increases driveline loading and limits the machine's ability to operate at full capacity.

Producing high-quality forage has become an increasingly technical process. Higher stocking rates and larger harvesting programmes mean every pass across the paddock has a direct influence on feed quality.

From the moment the mower enters the crop through to the final bale leaving the paddock, each machine in the harvesting chain contributes to the quality of the finished product.

Controlled-release fertilisers are not a new concept, but designing one that consistently delivers nitrogen when crops need it, while remaining commercially practical for large-scale agriculture, has proved far more challenging than simply coating a fertiliser granule.

Tnue's Controlled Release Technology represents a different approach to that challenge. Rather than changing the chemistry of urea itself, the New Zealand-developed technology focuses on engineering how and when nitrogen leaves each individual granule.
