Make the research count

Two applications are ideal; one still gives us data. At 300 mL/ha per application, 200 L covers approximately 333 ha with two applications or 667 ha with one. Follow the current label and agreed programme.

Keep at least 1 ha untreated with Silara. Record the actual application dates and paddocks, upload photos and share honest feedback through the app. No noticeable response is useful feedback too.

Optional Resilience reporting

Verdi maps and monitors the whole property, comparing the application area with its own history and the untreated rest of the farm. Complete Verdi’s New Client Form and marked farm map before report setup. Reporting is normally 12 months after first application; six months may be agreed where it covers summer.

Do not buy the full-price standalone report if using research package funding. Arrange your funded report with Hamish. The 100 L report contribution is not included in this product’s checkout price.

Existing Resilience farms have separate product pricing and use their next scheduled Verdi retest, or pay for their own re-run. Review all research options and eligibility →

Your adviser keeps their role. Do not apply Silara to Groundshift control farms. Satellite-derived pasture patterns cannot by themselves prove a treatment effect.
