Soilkee pasture cropping, fill feed gaps, reduce inputs, regenerate soil carbon & biology, improve water & nutrient holding capacity, increase production.

The Soilkee Renovator:
Soilkee Pty Ltd has invented the Soilkee Renovator, the one pass solution for productive, profitable, resilient soils. This Soilkee technology is beneficial to all soil based agriculture with the pasture cropping aspect having particular relevance to the pasture based sector. Pasture Cropping:
The Soilkee Renovator is a Pasture Cropping System that plants seasonal crop an

d pasture seeds into existing pasture; filling feed gaps and eliminating paddock down time traditionally associated with pasture renovation. The revolutionary Soilkee System provides a diverse pasture and crop mixture to fill the seasonal feed gaps right there in every paddock. The Soilkee System; more than just a seeder, how it works & enhances the soil:
Minimum till disturbance in spaced apart rows by means of rotating blades create a competition free seed bed for successful germination, leaving around 80% of the pasture undisturbed. A diverse mix of seeds can be applied from the seed box during operation with seeds dropping in the kee’s. The undisturbed portion acts as a cover crop protecting the soil from the elements, reducing erosion and keeping around 80% of soil life habitat intact. Whilst creating the seed bed the Soilkee Renovator provides additional benefits of aeration and a green manure crop within the worked up portion, providing aerobic conditions and a food source that activates the soil fungi, bacteria and earthworm populations and the natural soil processes they perform. Outcomes:
The unique action of the Soilkee Renovator activates soil life. Triggering proper soil function in this way improves soil structure, builds soil carbon through carbon sequestration, and increases water holding capacity and nutrient presence and availability; this improves fertility and increases plant growth as indicated in the independent trial results below. The Soilkee System enables you to successfully grow seasonal crops to bridge the feed gap whilst also enhancing the growth of the existing pasture and building a resilient topsoil. Reduce your brought in feed costs and better utilise your soil fertiliser inputs. Utilise your soil’s nutrient reserves by ensuring they are not locked up and are made plant available. Independent Trial Results:*
Soil Carbon increase 24% (from 3.7% to 4.6%)
Plant available Nitrogen increase 122%
Plant available Phosphorus increase 34%
Plant available Sulphur increase 51%
Dry matter up to 30% increase
Crude Protein 13%-45% increase
*Data from an independent replicated trial over one year in nine rotationally grazed paddocks on three farms, funded by a Commercialisation Australia ‘Proof of Concept’ grant supporting our patented innovation.

🌱 Multi‑species pastures and cover cropping systems are playing an increasing role in building soil function, system resilience and feed productivity across Gippsland. By combining grasses, legumes and broadleaf species, producers are improving ground cover, enhancing nutrient cycling and managing variability across seasons.

This valuable field day for our team was facilitated by Joel Geoghegan () and Peter Ronalds (Inspired Ag Solutions), with keynote insights from Grant Sims, sixth‑generation Victorian farmer and co-founder of Down Under Covers.

Our recent article explores how these systems are being integrated into existing farming enterprises, the agronomic considerations involved, and what early adopters are learning through on‑farm practice.

Lush, fast feed might look impressive, but it’s often diluted.

High moisture, low mineral density, and limited energy where it counts. Stock fill up, but they don’t move forward.

Nutrient-dense pasture is a different game. More dry matter, more available minerals, better protein-to-energy balance - meaning every bite drives real weight gain, milk production, fertility, and animal health.

It’s not about how much pasture you grow…
It’s about how much production you unlock from it.
