Turning a farm resource into fertiliser
Central Injection Agri is in the business of turning a resource readily available on dairy farms into nutrient-rich fertiliser with a minimum negative impact on the environment.
As demand grows for more precision and reduced waste in farming, farmers are starting to realise the benefits and cost savings of utilising their own slurry.
Slurry injector
Veen Huis Rotomax
To achieve effective slurry management, CIA Ltd locally acquired the Veen Huis Rotomax, which was imported in 2015 and has become a cornerstone of our operations.
The Rotomax features the Veen Huis Quantra pump unit, capable of holding up to 11,000 litres of effluent, along with the Premium-Ject 1200 injector and a Rotomax hose reel. The Premium-Ject is equipped with 60 individual discs – each disc creates a small slot in the soil, while 60 tubes deliver effluent directly into these slots for efficient ground absorption.
Tom operates the Rotomax using a John Deere 7250R tractor equipped with RTK GPS, while the pump is powered by a Deutz Fahr 9340 TTV tractor. The injector and pump communicate via radio signals for seamless operation.
On an 800-metre paddock, starting from the middle allows for a full-length pass in one motion while retracting the hose on the return trip – and because a heavy tractor never traverses the paddock, there’s no soil compaction.

Stone picker
ELHO Scorpio 550
The ELHO Scorpio 550 stone picker is equipped with unique solutions that make it easy to remove stones from fields.
One of its key features is a fully hydraulic drive, designed for use with a tractor’s normal dual-function hydraulic coupling. Automatic depth adjustment enables the machine to follow the surface of the ground with a constant working pressure – even in extremely dusty conditions.
Just as the Rotomax benefits the soil with a by-product you already have, the stone picker maximises the productivity of land that would otherwise be an inferior paddock.
