New Leader upholds a commitment to sustainability by designing and manufacturing spinner spreaders that comply with 4R Nutrient Stewardship to help improve agricultural productivity and minimize impact to the environment.
- Right Source: Matches fertilizer type to crop needs.
- Right Rate: Matches amount of fertilizer type crop needs.
- Right Time: Makes nutrients available when crops need them.
- Right Place: Keep nutrients where crops can use them.
Precision application starts with research and development, precision manufacturing, and quality assurance. At New Leader’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, each machine receives full hydraulic and electronic testing before being shipped to the customer.
Precision manufacturing leads to the best results in the field by placing material where it is needed which results in more responsible nutrient utilization. New Leader’s patented spinner spreader technology creates the optimal spread patterns for a wide range of nutrients and seed.
For example, New Leader’s G4 technology on the NL600 provides variable rate technology that allows uses to apply at different rates at each location across the field for the highest level of precision. This multi-purpose, multi-season spreader has the ability to spread a variety of materials at higher rates and faster speeds with precise independent spinner control and monitoring.
The New Leader User Interface offers an intuitive interface and advanced control and monitoring that gives the operator a complete, easy-to-use system for nutrient application.
Responsible Nutrient Management is a key foundation for the future of agriculture and New Leader will continue to do their part in helping create a sustainable future.
