BOSS breakthrough at LAMMA

January 10, 2024/in News, Press Release/by Tony Hawkins

BOSS breakthrough at LAMMA: BOSS ORV, the specialist vehicle distribution company, will show the Powerland Tachyon electric all-terrain vehicle for the first time at LAMMA. One of the fastest 4×4 electric ATVs in the world, the Tachyon offers all the benefits of conventional off-road utility vehicles while ensuring no damage to the environment.

The manufacturer says they have the aim of inspiring more companies to fundamentally change the way they operate for a more sustainable future. The Tachyon is now the complete fully electric (Li-ion) road legal ATV with tractor homologation. Direct drive hub motors help the vehicle achieve up to 50hp and 210nm of torque at each wheel. Without a motor gearbox transmission, humming is eliminated and less heat is generated. In-wheel motor technology also eliminates the need for numerous mechanical components, resulting in savings on maintenance costs. The hub motors with their regenerative braking technology help extend battery range and act as a better hill descent control while riding.

BOSS breakthrough at LAMMA

BOSS ORV is the sole UK distributor for the Tachyon. They will also be showing the Corvus Off-Road Vehicles’ Terrain side-by-side utility vehicles and the Faunamaster compact drill seeders at LAMMA. The Corvus Terrain range comprises diesel, electric and petrol models sold and supported through the Corvus UK dealer network. The Faunamaster are multifunctional and timesaving seed drills designed for use with an ATV, UTV or tractor. The drill, which comes from the Danish company Faunamaster ApS, sows seeds of virtually any size to a depth of up to 80mm. BOSS ORV will be displaying on stands 6.838 and 6.924 at LAMMA.

Suståne proves the key for consistency

January 9, 2024/in News, Press Release/by Elena Cossar

Suståne proves the key for consistency: A programme based around Suståne 5-2-4+Fe organic slow-release fertiliser is working wonders at Linköping Golf Club in Sweden – delivering enhanced consistency in plant health and growth for Head Greenkeeper Andreas Bergqvist and his team.

Now into their second year of pursuing a more natural approach to enhancing soil biology, not only are the greens performing better, the additional strength has seen improved resistance to Anthracnose.

Suståne proves the key for consistency

Andreas has been in charge of the maintenance of the picturesque parkland course for the last five years, but has been at the club since 2001 as a deputy where he first gained experience of products from the Suståne range. “My approach to plant health is very much to work with nature and feed from the bottom up, rather than the top down” he explains. “We’d been using Suståne for a number of years, but when I took over I further reduced artificial inputs in favour of upping our Suståne programme to get better structure into our push-up greens.”

The current plan consists of 8-10 week applications of Suståne 5-2-4+Fe between the months of April and September; the long-lasting sources of organic nitrogen promoting greater root development and good colour. “The main benefit we’ve found is that you don’t get the flush of growth like you do with synthetic fertilisers. It keeps the greens consistent in terms of playability and means that we’re employing fewer mechanical practices such as verti-cutting to keep on top of rapid growth which, in turn, brings benefit for surface quality and health.”

“Prior to using Suståne we would also commonly see outbreaks of Anthracnose around the course. This appears to have decreased significantly, and when we do get a patch we can target treat with some additional 5-2-4+Fe and it’s seemingly resolved within a couple of days.”

He continues, “One of the biggest issues we face here in southern Sweden is drought. The Suståne product being naturally-derived means that we can apply when we need to, and not when the rainfall forecast is in our favour. The boost to root development also means we’re finding that the grass is more tolerant to the hot and dry conditions which means we’re well-placed to deal with the changing climate moving forwards.”
