They identified the New Zealand dairy industry as being of global importance and that sustainable dairy effluent management is integral to the industry success. Drawing from their experience and motivated by the passion to provide farmers with much needed Safe and Reliable dairy effluent equipment, the team procured, invented and developed products to fulfill this niche. Small steps in the early days became giant leaps in the 21st century, when new unique products were added to the range, and market share increased dramatically. Nowadays, Nevada is regularly and efficiently producing proven and trusted dairy effluent pond equipment for dairy farmers. Its leading edge design and focus on detail have made it the front runner in its industry.

Right place, right time!

Michael was doing the rounds in Waikato and stopped in to see a customer, just as they were out spreading with their triple axle slurry tanker and Duo RainWave™ applicators.

Approximately 120 hours across the season, or around 12 to 15 hours a month from September to May.

Ben says effluent spreading doesn’t dominate their schedule. Using their slurry tanker gives them the flexibility to spread when conditions and the rest of the farm workload suit.

Three full rounds of the farm with effluent each year.

Running 320 cows at peak, Ben Johnson and Mackenzie Priest-Johnson can now spread approximately three times the volume they managed with their previous system over an eight-hour period.

At their chosen application rate, nutrient testing indicated approximately 32 kg/ha of nitrogen, 4 kg/ha of phosphorus and 15 kg/ha of potash.

The results are specific to their effluent and application rate, but they put real numbers behind the nutrients being returned to the farm.

400 bales in a normal season. Just over 800 that year.

John Duindam described it as a “green drought” on his farm in Tasmania. The paddocks were green, but growth had slowed right down.

He kept getting effluent out with the slurry tanker and when the rain eventually came, “it shot away.”

With El Niño back in the conversation, John’s story is a good reminder to make the most of the nutrients you’ve already got sitting on farm.

Two full seasons. More than 1,000 tanker loads.

On their Riversdale, Southland farm, Ben says the pasture growth following their effluent applications gave him the confidence to pull back on synthetic nitrogen inputs and save cash flow.

After that amount of use, Mackenzie says there’s no way they could see themselves going back to the old system.

Ben’s verdict: “Job done.”

Two full rounds of synthetic nitrogen fertiliser cut, while producing 10,000 kg more milk solids.

Two seasons on, Riversdale farmers Ben Johnson and Mackenzie Priest-Johnson are no longer just moving slurry. They’re getting those nutrients back onto the farm.

Getting familiar with the new workhorse.
