FSOOTY has proven to be an incredibly rewarding and enjoyable experience for all who participate, Syngenta Application Specialist, Scott Cockburn highlights:
"Everyone who enters has the same application challenges and frustrations, so there’s a huge amount to gain from sharing the solutions. One thing that’s repeated every year is that entrants find they learn something new from other operators and can improve the way they work."
Building on the success of previous years, FSOOTY celebrates excellence in sprayer operation while fostering a sense of camaraderie among operators.
The competition not only recognises outstanding practice but also offers a unique platform for operators to share experiences and enhance their learning.
