Sustainability at Slurryquip

At Slurryquip, our commitment to sustainability is at the core of everything we do. We believe that innovative agricultural solutions can lead to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future. Our advanced dribble bar systems and trailing shoes have revolutionized slurry application methods, significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions and ammonia volatilization.

Environmental Impact of Slurryquip's Systems

Converting farmers and contractors from traditional splash plates to dribble bars and trailing shoes has made a substantial positive impact on the environment.

Reducing Ammonia Emissions

Traditional slurry spreading with splash plates often results in high levels of ammonia emissions, contributing to air pollution and climate change. In contrast, dribble bars and trailing shoes apply slurry directly to the soil surface, significantly reducing ammonia volatilization. By converting to dribble bars, farmers can achieve a significant reduction in ammonia emissions, improving air quality and contributing to a healthier environment.

Greenhouse Gas Reduction

With numerous farms benefiting from our technology, it's estimated that collaborations between Slurryquip and our customers equate to an approximate annual reduction of 5,200 tonnes of CO2 emissions. This reduction is equivalent to the carbon sequestration of approximately 236,000 trees or removing 1,131 cars from the road for one year.

Our Green Fleet and Infrastructure

In addition to our innovative slurry application solutions, we have taken significant steps to reduce our carbon footprint through the adoption of electric vehicles and the implementation of electric charging ports.

Educating Our Customers

We are committed to educating our customers about the benefits of using larger pipes to improve efficiency and reduce fuel usage. By optimizing slurry application methods with larger pipes, farmers can achieve significant cost savings and further reduce their environmental impact.

Additionally, we are educating farmers on the benefits of using slurry separators. Slurry separators help manage waste more effectively by separating solid and liquid components. This process not only reduces the volume of waste but also enhances nutrient management, leading to better crop yields and reduced environmental pollution.

Our Commitment to a Greener Future

At Slurryquip, we are dedicated to continuing our efforts to develop and promote technologies that support sustainable agriculture. Our commitment includes:

• Innovation: Continuously improving our products to increase their efficiency and environmental benefits.

• Education: Providing resources and training to farmers on best practices for sustainable slurry management.

• Collaboration: Partnering with environmental organizations, research institutions, and agricultural communities to advance sustainable farming solutions.
