Scott Shearlaw runs a progressive dairy farm in Ayrshire, Scotland, milking 450 cows, where grass yield and quality are critical to overall performance. Like many dairy farmers, docks had become an ongoing issue and at AgriScot 2024, they discovered the SoilEssentials SKAi spot spraying system.

When Charlie Murray of Clyde Agriculture saw farmers struggling to control weeds without harming valuable clover, he sought a better way. Partnering with SoilEssentials, he adopted the SKAi spot-sprayer—an AI-driven system that targets weeds like docks with pinpoint accuracy, cutting chemical use and preserving sward quality. After a successful first season, the results speak for themselves: healthier grass, lower costs and exciting potential for tackling more weeds for the season ahead.
